Day 3 Capital Reef NP

Amazing hike to Cassidy Arch in Capital Reef NP.  The sun was out, the weather warm and the scenery was breathtaking.  Took a break mid-day to have pie at the Gifford House - a Mormon Homestead from the 1880's.  Beautiful orchards, still in production provide the fruit for the pies, jams and butters made here.  An oasis teeming with wildlife and water in the canyonlands of Utah.  The cherry pie was excellent!  The beauty in nature is that it makes you pause and enjoy the sights and sounds of all that surrounds you.

Tomorrow we're off to Great Basin NP in NV - no services, no internet, just solitude.
