Paying It Forward

We woke up Friday morning in Lake Powell, not knowing at all what the day would hold for us.

We were headed to Zion National Park in Utah. However, the weather forecast was looking grim over the next few days; winds forecasted up to 50mph and 6inches of snow with little to no visibility at times.

If the weather wasn’t enough to worry us, we were also starting to really get concerned with whether the government would be shutting down or not; if so, we would be looking for new places to see and stay…no government = no National Parks L If there is one thing that Josh and I have mastered during this road trip- it is adaptation. So off we went.

As we headed out of Lake Powell, we saw a Ford Explorer that looked like it was stuck on the side of the road. We decided to pull over and see if there was anything we could do to help. As we pulled up to the SUV, we saw two women on the ground trying to dig out their Explorer with coffee cups. Josh quickly assessed the situation and saw that he could hook up the tow strap and pull them out.

The women were very grateful that we were able to help.
