Zion National Park!

We have arrived!

We planned to get to Zion one day before the kids land so we can get ready, and WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO NOT MOVING THE CAMPER FOR A FEW DAYS!

Look at that rig-a-saurus.

Checking in at Zion Canyon Campground in Springdale, UT, right next door to the entrance to the National Park

Golly, this area really is beautiful.

Got the camper and camp site all set up!

And that was about it! We called it an early night in anticipation of the kids arriving tomorrow!

At around 4 am, Ben, being an official old guy at 51, had to take a wiz. After taking care of business, he popped outside to grab some dark sky shots. Not disappointed.

This morning, we had most of the day to ourselves ahead of the kids evening arrival, and so we planned two exciting events.

The bike ride up the Canyon! The whole reason we bought e-bikes and strapped them to the back of the tube and carried them all the way out here. Totally worth it.

Riding the bikes up the Canyon is just a phenomenal experience! The only way to go!

And laundry. No pictures for that event. But it was almost as exciting.

The kids get here in about five minutes so I am wrapping this up for now!

Ben and I have been a team since we were 17 years old. We're proud to say we've been married for more than half of our lives and we're still best friends. Our adventures together have been priceless, as we’ve played the part of nomads and moved with our two children approximately 22 times over the years. Several health issues, including Lupus, try to bring me down, but there is way too much fun to be had. After trying several Lupus medications, which didn't work for me, we decided to pause work life and figure out how to get out of the rat race and do "more." Now that our kids are grown and figuring out the real world, we've been doing "more" for the last few years and its been an incredible journey. We hope you enjoy!
