    WOW - I know it has been a long time, and I know most of you have been waiting for a new post about as patiently as someone I know waits for ice cream to finish!

    But wait no longer - there's exciting photos to check out in this canyoneering post!

    Well, I took the last two weeks off from writing and from the internet all together in order to explore a new place... my new favorite happy place. Zion Canyon.

    I got out there with some of my good friends from college to do a bit of canyoneering, but the first couple of days poured rain in an unprecedented long fall storm, so we ended up doing a lot of hiking for the first couple of days. There were beautiful views nonetheless.

        Finally, we got to drop into a couple canyons... we did Keyhole, Birch Hollow, Pine Creek, Echo, Spry, Behunin, and Mystery in Zion before Craig and I headed out to Arizona to drop Water Holes Canyon... a story that deserves a whole post to itself. For now, let's just say it took 33 hours. Hehe.
