As mentioned earlier, Danny and I ran away from life for a few days and headed down to the southern side of the state and our neighbor state of Colorado. I had never been to Capitol Reef National Park or Mesa Verde National Park, so I felt it was high time to check those two off the list. It was a perfect time to go. The weather was cool and great for hiking and there were very little crowds, plus the views were gorgeous. I really tried to cut down on how many pictures I posted, but there are still quite a few. However, they are pretty pictures, so enjoy! Capitol Reef National Park - Day 1 The wall where flutes are played. A beautiful man among beautiful scenery. (Danny is going to love this caption.) What a lovely rock... Until it tries to eat you! How frightening. Capitol Gorge in Capitol Reef. It's Cool with a capital C. Taking pictures of petroglyphs. I approve of this hike. What you do when ...
