UTAH! We made it to the land of blue sky, red rocks, canyons, scrubby trees, and wide open spaces. Our first stop is Snow Canyon State Park about 5 miles north of St George's. The Park does not get any of that white SNOW stuff but is named for 2 early Mormon settlers. This is Mormon country.
First and foremost was wishing my Mom: Happy Mother's Day! I value your positive attitudes about life and generosity to both family and friends. LOVE!!!
And then I wanted ice cream. Just can't go too many days without ice cream. DQ it was and they have a nice WiFi signal.
Snow Canyon has many hikes (mostly 2-3 miles long) and we hiked on petrified sand dunes, crisscrossed lava flows, and soaked up the scenery of white and red sandstone.
We expect to enjoy all the National Parks in Utah for several weeks before scooting east to Loveland, CO. So get ready for pictures of Rocks, Sky, Rivers, and more Rocks.
