We've reached the end! Congrats to all!
Let's take a collective pause to pat ourselves (and each other) on the back.
I'll keep this one short for a wrap up. If you haven't gone to Zion National Park - GO! The scenery is absolutely stunning.
My favorite memory from Zion is a specific photo shot. I waded across a stream at the bottom of a rock-hewn valley with red sandstone spires at the top and vibrant green trees along the valley floor. On the far side of the stream was a solid rock face with a perfect little picture-taking alcove. I hopped up into it and just got the coolest feeling of being in the middle of nature.
Later in the year, the river would flood and cover this area - I felt like I was getting a secret glimpse of features that would no longer exist in a few weeks.
It was a wonderful reminder of why we go on vacations - to seek wonder and adventure!
Hope you enjoyed this year's A to Z.
Zion is one of my favorites. I've always wanted to hike through that valley/canyon/tight area (what would one call it?), but we're never there at the right time of year. Someday ;)
