Zion

We took advantage of our proximity to Zion National Park two weekends ago and decided to take a day trip. First we hiked Weeping Rock, which is a quick, easy 10 minute hike... and then we decided to get ambitious.
We hiked Angels Landing- up to the chain! It took us 3 hours round-trip (Chris carried both the kids most of the way up)!

Am I glad we did it? Sure! Would I do it again? No! It kicked my butt!
Nice views though.

As long as I don't have to take my kids, I would love to hike with you! :)

I'm jealous, you went hiking without me. You booger!!

My wife will be angry if I don't point out that it's "Zion" National Park, rather than "Zions."

Good times, though. We did the Angel's Landing hike when we were dating, but only went to the chains because there was snow and ice everywhere and we didn't want to die.

Don't blame your obsession with grammar on your wife, Joel.
You probably wouldn't like that I pronounce Hurricane the way it's spelled either. :)
