Zion Zion Zion - What a Gem!

For a different perspective, we attended the Spanish Mass at Christ the King Church this morning.  Wow!  The priest gave the most passionate sermon either one of us has ever heard in a Catholic church; too bad we only understood a few words of it!  The music was beautiful and the church only about 1/3 full.

This afternoon we took a ride (for a change.)  Going back to Zion Park, we decided to take the western entrance into Kolob Canyons.  At the end of this road there was a Timber Creek Overlook Trail, which of course we had to take.  This is a mile-long trail over very rocky ground and follows a ridge up to a small peak.  See pictures below.  Outstanding views of Timber Creek, Kolob Terrace and Pine Vallley Mountains.  It was a gorgeous day!

Back in the car, we continued on to the south entrance to the park where we took the Kolob Terrace Road, a narrow winding road with steep grades.  Along this road, we encountered again SUPER scenery and following is a sample of what we enjoyed.
