I LOVE ZION'S NATIONAL PARK

Magic Illumination by Jen McBride

Okay, I'm not exactly an outdoor enthusiast. I don't love camping and I definitely don't love roughing it.  I prefer a condo and hot shower, to a tent and sleeping bag. Call me crazy.  Seriously, call me CRAZY!  

But I love the fact that I can get to Zion's National Park within an hour and I don't have to camp to enjoy the spectacular beauty of Zion.  It is literally in my front yard.  

Some people don't realize that Zion is practically deserted during the winter months butit is just as breathtaking as during the more popular seasons: Spring, Summer and Fall.  

The majesty of Zion is awe inspiring and humbling.  How was something so beautiful made by sand, wind and a little water, one day at a time.  Amazing.
