I know you appreciate Utah's variety. thanks!<br /><br />Glenda,<br />Sorry, we left monday :((<br />maybe next time, or down the road :)) My blog lays out our favorite hikes... don't overlook last years November posts, Thanks for commenting.<br /><br />Bay Rider,<br />Ha... Yuma does rock :)) <br />It's just not my cup of tea... although I do sometimes envy warmer temps. <br />Sell the house and get out here... or maybe you should rent it first...<br /><br />Walden Steve,<br />Good luck in the half marathon, Steve. I know you love Florida and running on the beach. You need to get back out here so I can convert you to at least a summertime mountain man :)) I know where you can rent a studio apt. :))<br /><br />Kib Explorer,<br />Yes... shorts and t shirts! We had great weather. thanks<br /><br />Wandrin Lloyd,<br />Hey, I see you capitalized Nature!!! You are slipping... <br />Thanks for commenting Lloyd... see you in January.<br /><br />Gaelyn,<br />maybe "asses" would be a better word :))<br />Utah is the most diverse state in the USA, that's for sure. Thanks!<br /><br />Al,<br />You hit the nail on the head... We haven't a clue.<br />"Something" is good enough for me too.<br />thanks for your two cents!<br /><br />Jim and Gayle,<br />Yeah, I wouldn't last in an indoor church... sitting in a pew... listening to a one way sermon. My outdoor church let's me participate in the "service." <br />Enjoy your new "kids." :)) And tell Jim I'm not sending cat food... (grin)<br /><br />John Q,<br />There is a short trail that goes out to an overlook at the east tunnel entrance. You can see East Temple from there and we just zig zag up, up, up the sandstone. Maybe someday we'll show you in person.<br /><br />Wise Ones,<br />Yes same here... we miss our good times and hikes and bikes... keep thinking of how much fun it was to have RV buddies to play with. And I glad Maikel is still hurting, Now I don't feel so bad. :))<br />thanks!!! Travel on, see you in Arizona in January sometime.<br /><br />Sue,<br />Thank you... I did get a little carried away with the "postcards." (dang Boonie)<br />It is hard to believe that it looks that colorful in Utah on a good light day... but as you say, it really does.<br />Thanks for commenting Sue!<br />markBox Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-20021648937487340812012-12-07T20:45:00.015-07:002012-12-07T20:45:00.015-07:00Love the post cards.

Good photography of course, but it really does look like that. Makes me miss it all the more.

I see East Temple on the map but from what trail head did you approach it? Nature has so much to offer, even a walk in the woods near my home I can smell the leaves, hear the singing birds and playful squirrels, watch the contrast between bare trees and blue sunny skies, and feel the cool fresh air that reminds me that it's December in Indiana.<br />While I do enjoy hiking in the Midwest, it just keeps me in shape for the real joy of hiking out West. Ouray and Zion are special places that you have done well to document and capture the spiritual nature.John Qnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-71178282243765733552012-12-06T06:42:55.220-07:002012-12-06T06:42:55.220-07:00Having been brought up in a Catholic background, I...Having been brought up in a Catholic background, I must confess I get so much more satisfaction hiking in a magnificent place like Zion than I ever did sitting through Mass.<br />Great photos, but some made me a bit woozy!<br /><br />GayleJim and Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13982110996137470496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-31127064218522249172012-12-06T04:36:30.505-07:002012-12-06T04:36:30.505-07:00Yes, I agree with you about believing in 'some...Yes, I agree with you about believing in 'something.' And, about those special places & times. My beliefs do not fit the standard norm & it took me many years to understand that & not knuckle under to the huge pressure of people's in your face religious beliefs. I feel whatever that 'something' is, is far beyond 'all' of the world's current religious beliefs....bar none.
