Zion was the first National Park on our Utah NPs tour of 2016. It's only 6.5 hours from our former home in SoCal, so we were able to wake up Tuesday (April 19) morning, have our final walk-through at our townhome with our landlord, get on the road, and easily make it to Zion before the end of the day. We rode a tram to the Emerald Pools trailhead and took a nice, leisurely 1. 2 mile saunter up and back to the lower Emerald Pools and waterfall.
It's incredible to contemplate Scripture in nature. God is just so big, so POWERFUL! Everything comes through Him, and without Him we have nothing. Wow, what a mighty God we serve. Truly.
The waterfall was pretty, but is very hard to see in the picture (on the right). Sometime within a few week radius of Mother's Day, we traditionally go on a hike to a waterfall, so this very well may have been my "Mother's Day" hike, though I really don't know what Chris and the kids have been discussing behind closed doors. Either way, it was a beautiful waterfall and I got to enjoy a beautiful hike with my family to see it, so I'm a happy mommy.
As usual, fun was had by all, our little hikers rocked the short hike, and we basked in the glory of an awesome Creator.
