Zion, one of My Favorite Places to Vacation
Zion National Park is one of our favorite places to spend vacation time. It’s especially wonderful when we share it with family and friends. Above you can see our younger grandson, as he watches the Virgin River flowing by.
We did some great hiking and saw many beautiful sights.
This is our third visit to Zion National Park. Each visit is different, yet wonderful in its own way. Last year it was rainy, which gave the mountains a mystical appearance. This year it is sunny. Mid 70s during the day and high 40s at night. Perfect sleeping weather.
If you would like to see photos from our previous visits to Zion, please go to the front page of Plum Bird Corner and type Zion in the Search box. If you’ve never been to Zion National Park, you must add it to your vacation bucket list. You will not regret it.

After finding several more photos of stairs, I began thinking about my fascination with stairs. Continue reading
