Note From Mags

What an amazing few days this has been! With Ami “Death Marchlik” at the helm, it’s been action packed, of course! We have loved every minute of it. 5 kids in tow…..no problem! We got this. I can tell you if we “had a rope” we would have many more stories to share. But looking back…it’s probably a good thing we didn’t 😉 So many beautiful sights here in Zion. My favorite was definitely the hike through the narrows. We were smart and got completely outfitted….kids in dry suits and the rest of us in dry pants and proper shoes.  Made the 8 miles hiking through water much more pleasant! We hiked so far back that the people we saw were amazed we got that many kids back there. Truly gorgeous and worth the TORTURE. The cold beer at the end of that experience was the best I’ve ever tasted! OK, I may have said this before, but this time I mean it! I’m awestruck at seeing first hand what Ami and CJ have been doing with these kids the last month. Grateful to have gotten to experience a little of it firsthand…(while I’m typing this Ami said the words “slick rock biking” I’m pretending I don’t hear her and thinking I may be leaving just in time 😉 oh who am I

kidding….be all in or get out, there is no half way! I WISH WE COULD STAY.
