Utah National Parks - Here We Come

Two days whipped by and I didn't blog. This happens when we are doing run-of-the-mill chores and we're not visiting or exploring new areas.  Rather than bore you with the past couple of days, I'm going to give you a peek into our future plans.

Tomorrow morning we are heading to Utah to visit Zion, Arches and Bryce Canyon National Parks.  We've been watching the weather closely and Zion's temperatures are ranging in the low 80's during the day and low 50's at night.  Bryce will be about 20 degrees cooler because of the higher elevation.  This is our first visit to that part of the country and we're very excited.

We have our Official Guide to America's National Parks and our National Park Passport Book.  Our first stop at each of the parks is the visitor's center to stamp our Passport Book and purchase the Regional Stamp .. it's fun!  Denis qualified for his Senior Lifetime Pass and our entrance fee is free with camping at half price.  The only challenge is the sites are first-come first-served and most parks have a vehicle length limit.  Hopefully, we'll be able to squeeze in.

We're looking forward to this new adventure.  Thanks for stopping in!

The coach is ready and so are we
We'll be added some new stickers to our map
