We have completed our tour of the 5 Utah National parks. How amazing they are, and all different. I highly recommend a trip to Utah Parks to anyone. Even if you are not a hiker, the scenery is beautiful and each park is different in scenery, and general atmosphere. Some parks are very crowded, some are very sparsely visited. But all are truly worshipful experiences seeing all that our Mighty God has created. One of the highlights for me was a Canyonland cruise by night. A simple light show, no fancy laser or colors, but just a light reflecting off the canyon walls, while the telling of the amazing story of creation, and telling of the area history and beauty, the stars shining, a beautiful moon. A truly remarkable evening. Pictures can not begin to show the beauty, but a few to give you and idea.

When we drive with Terri, her dogs think it is awesome to sit on my lap. There are two of them even though this picture just shows one. |
