Greetings from Bryce Canyon National Park
After our marriage, we went to a trip to Utah and Arizona. Initially, we thought all the National Parks would be the same. Bryce was the 1st National Park we visited together. We totally loved it and learned how hoodoos are formed, how acid rain is effecting the hoodoos. We…

Greetings from Grand Canyon National Park
I haven't been to the Grand Canyon since I was 5 years old. Needless to say, I don't remember too much of it. However, when my girlfriend and her parents took a trip this November for her birthday, I made some amazing memories this time! This picture was from our…
