Today we started out at Bryce Canyon leaving our hotel at 6:18 AM sunrise the temperature was 54° we drove through Bryce Canyon stopping at various points we saw some wildlife along the way deer,antelope, and squirrels. Would love Bryce Canyon to head to Zion national Park as we were leaving Bryce Canyon we realize that I left my leather jacket on the top of the cooler as we pulled out Jeff and I had to turn around and go get my jacket which had gone into the road. We traveled on to Zion national Park and the temperatures quickly rose we got to Zion national Park drove through the park it was beautiful but as we left the park the temperature soared to 102°. Once we got out of the Zion And drove for a little bit to get to Route 15 we stopped for lunch to cool down. As we departed the temperature had risen to 105° we got on route 15 to head towards Pleasant Grove Utah where my brother lives we had to stop every hour to cool off and hydrate. By the time we reached our hotel we were ready to get into the shower cool down and relax. After showering we headed to my brother Carson's house for dinner. They prepared us a Polynesian dinner. We got to visit for a little and then headed back to the hotel. On the way back to the hotel we saw a lot of smoke and realized the mountain was now on fire. Jeff and Jim have just left to go check it out. Total miles today 444
