It is going to be a Grand (Canyon) Day

I am sitting in a very scenic laundrette in southern Utah, banging out a few lines. We are leaving the , pick an adjective here, area of Zion National Park and motoring down Grand Canyon way today. Almost as soon as we leave here, we will enter a mile and a half long tunnel, and when we pop out, will be amidst some(more) incredible scenery. We will be able to see a formation called the wave. It looks like petrified water, sand frozen in undulating ribbons. It is very fragile and only 10 people a day are allowed to hike it, places given by lottery. I entered the lottery, but we did not get a pass, so we will have to wave(hmm, an unintended pun, not bad a 0600) at it as we go by. As it is 6, I will have to close this, and add some final thoughts on Zion later. Possibly as we drive, as it will take my mind of driving the mountain roads!!
