Long Overdue...

These three peaks are found in Zion National park and it just so happens that this stop was called Patriarchs' Peaks...And the three peaks are named Abraham (far left), Isaac (middle) and Jacob (far right). We of course had to take a picture. We were at Zion because Kory's cousin Parker got married in the park. The picture below was one we took right after the ceremony. We had to wait to take the picture because the bride and groom were there first, but it was worth the wait. I wish our camera did the view and beauty of the park more justice. Honestly, it is amazing what a couple million years and a river can do!

Another beautiful view! Because of enormous amounts of traffic the park decided to only allow a certain amount of cars in the park each day. And instead of letting the cars drive all the way up the canyon, you have to take a tour bus type thing. It actually reminded me of a tram from the zoo or something. Anyways, the bus drivers were very informed and told us a bunch of facts about how the park was made and other important facts. It was really cool. The picture below is part of the road that leads up the canyon. BEAUTIFUL!


On the way home from Zion we stopped by my grandparents house and visited for about an hour. It was very good to see my grandpa and grandma. An hour was the perfect amount of time with my grandma. She has alzheimers and can get very edgy very quickly. I love them so much but it is so hard to be there with them.
