D. I. and Jane had a Utah
Canyons Trip as shown above, driving 3,026 miles (almost 5,000km) in 8 days,
visiting red marked National Parks. Blue spots are where they have stayed in
nights and each different color line represents drive of each day. Jane
expressed the trip : We drove a lot, saw beautiful and spectacular canyons a
lot, walked a lot, ate lots of junk food, got lots of sun tan, talked a lot
and really enjoyed a lot. They visited Bryce and Zion canyons a few times
and this trip has been planned for a few years to visit canyons further deep
in Utah where they could not go usually. It was 10 days trip plan
originally, but they had to give up Ranbow Bridge, Death Valley and Devils
Postpile, as Rainbow Bridge is too hard to get there and they were too tired
to go other two places at the end of the trip. The "Golden Age
Passport" D. I. purchased at the cost of $10 after retirement was very
usefull this time as it allows him and all passengers in his car free
admission to all national parks and monuments (You can purchase at any
national park after age of 62.).
