Day 25 - Farmington NM Bound

Our route today will take us east out of Zion Park via the Zion-Mt. Carmel highway. There is road construction and the road doesn't open until 8 a.m.  Was very pretty to watch the sun rise over the mountains.

It was well worth this drive, even with the construction.  Saw deer and mountain goats - so pretty on the sandstone cliffs.  Made it through the mile long tunnel A-OK.  Stopped at Glen Canyon Dam. The visitor center here is really good. Would like to come back and spend more time in this area.

Our purpose for going through Farmington was to see Zac - our future son-in-law.   Met him and his step-father LaRay for dinner. Zac took us up a hill outside of town to see an awesome sunset. It was all good!
