The end of our first two weeks. In that time we have traveled a total of 3,864 miles, if you're counting, which we are. So far Jim & John's Junket has visited one National Prairie Grassland Preserve, two Presidential Libraries, three National Monuments, and Six National Parks...not bad for just two weeks! As we begain our drive today we first visited Red Canyon, a scenic forested red rock canyon, located in the Dixie National Forest. Next we visited Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah which is considered to be the jewel of the area. It has dazzling amphitheaters of pink and orange hoodoos, cliffs, and pinnacles. Its beauty is unbelieveable.
