We arrived in southern Utah yesterday and had a tight time getting in the sight. We clipped the rear corner of the RV roof and made a small scratch in the roof. We spent the late afternoon doing a temporary patch. Today we went into the park. It was a nice sunny, unbelievably clear morning, but turned to overcast and light showers around noon. What a difference between the morning and the afternoon. We took a mile trail the Virgin River and one to a viewpoint of the 3 Patriarchs. We took the tram to several places and spent time at the Zion Historical Museum. There we heard a talk about the local animals and reptiles and a 22 minute movie about the beginnings of Zion. Our last hike was up a strenuous trail to Weeping Rock, a waterfall that runs year round. We got pretty wet from the rain on the way back down.

We made it to the top of the Weeping Rock trail
Today is a lot warmer and hazy. We had to go into St. George, Utah to buy a patch and some caulking to fix the 10 inch rip in the corner of our roof. We hit a branch coming into this RV park 2 days ago. On the way back we got some good long range photos.
