September 8, 2007

We like it here so we decided to stay another night in Zion but unfortunately the campground is full. From our prior experience with National Parks we thought we could get a cancellation if we checked first thing this morning. But no luck this time, so we packed up to leave. On the way out we checked with the ranger again, on a whim, and this time our persistence paid off. A last minute cancellation! We spend the rest of the morning in the local library using the Internet to catch up on our postings, email, and news. Aimee suggests I google deaths on Angel’s Landing. I do and we find that somebody has fallen to their death on this trail both this year and last.

After lunch we went back into town for groceries and a little window-shopping. The rest of the afternoon we relax and do some reading while enjoying the view. I am on my 28th book of the year.
