Subway Saturday

So Steve's latest craze is rappelling and hiking. Since we now live in Southern Utah, there are plenty of areas to do both. He wanted to do "The Subway" at Zions.

The weather was perfect, but the water was freezing. It took us about 10 hours from starting point to ending point, including a 3 1/2 hour hike out of the Subway back to the parking lot. We are all heavily medicated with ibuprophen today (little did I know my adventures would all begin after I turned 40) Here are some highlights:
