We decided to take a weekend road trip. Sean told me the other day he wanted to go on a trip. I said "we are going to St George this weekend". He said "that's a mini trip. I want a real trip. I want to go to the Bahama's and stay at the Atlantis. That would be our most epic trip ever!" Later in the day he asked me if I had booked that trip. Alas, I had not, we had to settle for a not so epic trip to Zion's Canyon National Park.
We spent the night in Hurricane so we could see Alex for his birthday. We were going to take him to breakfast but he was unloading a trailer and putting furniture in storage in the morning. He has everything out of his house now so he can list it. Divorce sucks but he'll be happier once he's passed through this really hard time and moved on to the other side of divorce (the happy side). I know he's really sad about having to sell the house. Since he couldn't do breakfast we did dinner and since it was a Friday night in St George we did Rumbi Grill. Not an exciting dinner but it was good to see Alex.

| Saturday morning we got up and went to Zion's Canyon National Park. We took the shuttle all around the park. It was the 100 year anniversary of the National Park system so admission was free. Bonus! |
 |
| We did the Emerald Pools Trail. There are three different pools and we visited all of them. The weather was an anomaly. It was so cool. There was a little bit of rain. The slot canyons were closed most of the day because of flash flood risk. We didn't plan on going to the slots anyway. The trail to the first pool was about .5 miles and paved. After that trail it got rocky and steep but it wasn't a bad hike. It would have been if it had been really hot. |

| I thought Sean was asleep too but he was not! After Zions and driving through Dixie National Forrest we spent the night in Cedar city and then headed home on Sunday. We were home by 2. |
