I am Zion

At the service station this morning drinking coffee, I noticed a petition arguing against the establishment of a new local wind farm. I need to check out their website windfarmfactsutah.org to get my facts straight I guess.

Stopping briefly in La Verkin to get some groceries, I made it to Zion in time to get a days worth of hiking at the emerald pools and the narrows while also resting on the park shuttle and taking in the splendor. I discovered that it was hard for me to fully relax because of the guilt for not using the beautiful day to ride and all of the tourists around me. This realization lead me to conclude that I will skip the Grand Canyon on this trip.

I camped that night along the Virgin River and had a quick dip before bed. The cool water felt great!
