Moving day.

Today is August 26 and we are preparing to move tomorrow. We have been here two weeks and I believe they have been the fastest two weeks we have experienced in a long time. We visited Zion National Park several times and every time we are in awe at the beauty God created there. I know that the scientist can explain how all the color and sheer cliffs over 3000 feet high got there ( or so they say) but they can not explain the feeling of worship that takes place in a person's heart when he or she looks at all that beauty with an eye toward God. The Mormans who settled this area in the 1800s named the canyon Zion because of the sense of being in the Throne Room with God. It is awesome, if you read this and have never seen Zion National Park you need to put that on your list of things to do before you go to the real Zion in Heaven . The day before we left our campground in Panguich, Utah Sylvester was attacked by a stray cat and has been sick ever since. He had two bad bites and the vet patched him up and we have been giving him antibiotics. I took him back to the vet this morning and he is improving but still not back to his old self. I called Teddy on the twentieth to wish him a happy birthday, his birthday was the twenty-first, His family was doing well and he had been working on their house that they are building. I called the twentieth because we were going down to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon on the twenty-first and didn't think that we would have a signal on the cell phone. It has been hot here, as high as 106 degrees, and I though that things would cool down and they have here but I see that it is 107 in Las Vegas, NV where we are going tomorrow. We have a resort there and there is a lot of things to see there also. We will take pictures and post them on our blog later. Helen is doing great and we are both in good health and are enjoying our travels.
