Last Post for August!!

It has taken a while and now that September is all but over I am finally finished with August! Here are some pics from a trip to Zion National Park in Utah. It is an amazing place to visit, it was pretty hot but thankfully we were near a river. My buddy Josh and I drove through the night and arrived in Zion early to get a early start on the Narrow's Hike. This hike goes up through the North Fork Virgin River through canyons it has spent thousands of years making. It was pretty amazing! Unfortunately, there was a flash flood warning for later in the afternoon so we didn't lollygag in the canyon.

amazing sunset before embarking!
Jessica, Hannah, Josh, and me. Josh and I departed shortly after the sun set.
Sunrise on beautiful sandstone walls!
Into the canyons...

Flagstaff Midnight Adventure Run

On August 12 my friend Evan was heading back to Oklahoma in 1979 VW Bus. Minutes before he left I decided to tag along to Flagstaff, Az and then ride the train home, supposedly, in time for class. It was quite an adventure!


Train tracks being resurfaced in the desert... it was an interesting sight to come upon in the desert in the middle of the night.
