Happy Birthday Dad.

April 16, 2008 (13) I had a special treat this week.  My dad came down on his annual trip to the south land.  He and his wife, Karen, crashed here Tuesday and Wednesday.  We had a good visit last night catching up and seeing how everything was.  He even tried my left-handed strung guitar.  It isn't as easy as it looks folks.

Anyway it is his 60th birthday and we went up to Zion's National Park.  He wanted to go up Observation Point on the East Rim trail.  If you know Zion's, it is a really steep and long climb.  We found a back way in by going above the park and hiking back into the park.  It was about a 7 mile round trip hike but not hard at all.  It was very windy but not really that cold.  It made for a fun day.

I am happy he made it here and that we were able to spend the day together.
