Angel's Landing, Zion National Park, April 7, 2011
Before the storm
After April first no one is allowed to drive up the canyon but the shuttles are great - they come by every few minutes and make stops at all the trailheads and points of interest. I hopped on one this morning thinking I might get in a couple of short hikes ahead of the rain and snow storm due in this afternoon. That worked all too well - it's now 4:45 and the storm still hasn't arrived.

Float Your Ideals
You have to float your ideals a little off the ground, to keep them from being profaned. And cut loose the misfortunes and insults, too, lest they take root and strangle your soul.
