Weekend hiking

I did my first local hike this weekend, and it went fantastic. I did he hike by myself so that made for a very peaceful afternoon. The hike is called Donut Falls, and that is because the waterfall you get to has a gigantic "grotto" looking feature that you can hike right next to. The hike is 1.5 miles and takes about an hour total roundtrip to get to. But I was full of curiosity so I hiked above the falls and along a river trail for another two hours until I got all the way to the snow caps and some old mining shafts. Really cool scenery up there.

Some more photos from Zion's a couple weekends ago. If I can get over this stomach virus I might go camping again this weekend

under the weather

Well, I came down with a case of food poisoning (I guess you shouldn't eat day old tunafish) so I am posted up on the couch for a while. That means plenty of time to add new posts so here we go...

I am not a person that talks about politics too much, but I was reading an article yesterday about Israel, the U.S., and Iran. There was a comment that an Iranian official made that to me seemed quite scary. Here is the clip from the article...

"Our last word is that if you want to head toward Iran, be sure to bring with you a walking stick and a pair of artificial legs, because if you do come to Iran you will no longer have legs to go back home with." Hejazi said.

Played a round of golf on Friday. Still snow on the caps in  the background. We shot 66 in a 2 man scramble.

More Zion photos

Here are a couple more photos from our trip last weekend. As I said that place was amazing. I am thinking about going camping around SLC again this weekend, but a b-day party in PC might occur instead. Anyway, enjoy the pics. And notice the hoodie John is wearing...Rosestar!

First test

I have posted a photo of us from this weekend down in Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks. The weather was amazing. 100 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. 4 of us guys headed down and camped at a local Indian campground. We did two separate hikes, one of which was to watch one of the best sunsets I have ever seen. More photos to come I am just getting the hang of this, and I need to do some post production on my photos to lighten them a bit
