Zion

We just returned from a family reunion to the Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort in Utah, near Zion National Park, with my extended family. It was a whirlwind of a trip with flying to SLC late Wednesday evening, driving 6 hours to Zion on Friday, then back to SLC on Tuesday and an early flight home on Wednesday again, but it was worth it! We enjoyed every minute of it, but missed Grandma and Grandpa and others who couldn't come. Here are some highlights.

    Fun! We went to ZP a few years ago. Did your kids do the camp thing (I can't remember what it was called)? Ours loved it! Horseback riding, zip line, 4-wheeling, arts & crafts . . . I remember that place very fondly!

    No, since it was a family reunion, they wanted to just hang out with their cousins and do their own thing... They had a blast, though!
