Update on rally location.  Hop is over and Skip is here.  We left Zion River Resort this morning and most of us are now ensconced at Ruby's Inn/Best Western campground at the entrance to Bryce Canyon.  Almost time for happy hour!   ;)

Enjoy.  We are now in Huntsville, UT, at Anderson Cove.  Beautiful setting.  About 10 miles thru a nice canyon to Jolenes Dad's house.  We moved up from the bug clogged air at Willards Bay.

Family viit is going nicely.  Pancake breakfast here tomorrow.

Leaving Zion, how did the trip up the hill and through the tunnel go (other than Mimi with sunglasses and no headlights)?

No need to buy another car. The jeep G.C. has automatic lights and it is normally always in that position. Before we went to the tunnel I told here to to turn the headlights on. To day she is reading the manual  ;D

Wendy,

There were no problems going through the tunnel at all.  Just pay the $15 and follow  in the car.  We found a place ralative close by after the tunnel to hook up.  It was fun, an adventure!  Those who went around the tunnel  had no problems either.  What a fun travel day.

And if your total length is 50 feet or less then you don't have to unhook.

I must say it's a thrill when you meet a tour bus going downhill and you're on one of the 20 mph switchbacks near the top on the outside edge and there's no fence or guardrail - just a nice drop down.  Happily I was driving and Jerry followed in the toad so at least I wasn't in the passenger seat.  Don, I give tour bus drivers a lot of credit for driving in places like that!  ;D  Of course, I'll bet some of the tourists they're carrying are closing their eyes!
