Leaving the Box Canyon of Zion

Turning 180 from the last picture in yesterday's blog post you can see how we drove into - and therefore can drive out of - this box canyon.  At our feet is the Virgin River.

I simply cannot get over how drastically and completely the color of the geology changes around here!!













                           I love it !!

So, we're tootlin' back out of the box canyon and are just about to the bridge that would take us to the Grotto, and what do we see?

Now isn't he just simply beautiful??!!  Look at those colors! and the variety of feather's shapes and the way they layer differently!!

Yes, there's a fence behind him, but he's not "fenced."  And he's not alone!

How cool is THAT?  A whole flock of wild turkey, and as healthy as the turkeys our son is workin' his tush off to raise back home.  YUM!!

Well, we need to hightail it outta here 'cause, like I said, it's gettin' nigh onto dark!
