Since my last blog post we've been through Salt Lake City, Canyonlands NP (NP=national park), Mesa Verde NP, Arches NP and Grand Canyon NP. What do all these parks have in common? They make you take a step back and go, wow. Not just because of its size, color or beauty. But because of the stories and secrets of the parks, the multiple ways our earth can shape itself, and the old native culture contained within the parks. I see why many of the natives used to worship these places. Their incredible, and unreal at times.
When we were at Arches NP, one of the rangers was telling us that their yearly entrance count doubles every year. This is mostly people returning after already having been there before. This isn't because of their advertising or warm weather. But because of a certain mystical appeal that drags you back, again and again. Believe what you want, but all of us felt this. We would return without question to Arches NP, and we highly recommend it.
Within the next week we will be entering Bryce canyon NP, Zion NP, and then Las Vegas. I'm updating the map and pictures sections of the website quite often. I also added a stats page, which will hopefully grow within the next month. Suggestions and positive vibes are greatly appreciated. Also, be sure to comment on the blog, and like the Facebook page. Talk to you all soon!
