August 9-17, 2005
We stayed at the Quality Inn/RV Park in the town of Springdale during our trip to Zion National Park. The park is ½ mile from the entrance to the park, very convenient to both the town and the park. We didn’t need to use our car as we could walk or ride our bikes wherever we needed to go.
We met our friends John and Bev Higbie there. John and Bev were the first people we met on our very first campout in our motorhome in 2002 at Lake Ray Roberts in Texas. They own a beautiful 42 foot ForeTravel motorhome and have helped us through our life style change from home on land to home on wheels. Bev has been a major support in getting Joni through the sale of our house and getting into the full time RV experience.
John and Bev had to work during our first few days at the park, so we took a few hikes and met them during the evening. We saw some spectacular views while hiking and riding our bikes through the park.
Pictured are Delton and Joni on the way to Angel's Landing. It is a trail not designed for the faint-of-heart.
