We hiked Zion National Park today. It was just enough to give us a little taste of what was to come.

We hiked about two miles with only a few complaints from the teenagers. It was pretty and well worth the huffing and puffing at the end.

I didn't develop any revelations about hiking or being one with nature, but it felt good and after being on vacation for a week overeating, I embraced the much needed exercise.

| My sister, hiking with joy! |
We found ourselves sitting on the grass near the Zion Lodge, resting, snacking letting the littlest boy burn off some energy. He was offered a French fry from other visitors sitting near us, they laughed and smiled at his cute little antics. He took that French fry with vigor and ran away grinning.
It was a poignant day filled with harmony and happiness. The family, cousins reunited, growing older. Time together is often limited and far apart.
We ate dinner at home, all together, at the long dinning room table in our beautiful, temporary Zion home.
