Last week we took a family vacation (sans Bug who worked VBS instead and hates family vacations because something bad always happens) with Eric's best friend and cousin, Scott, to our usual getaway Springdale, Utah. Springdale is the little town that sits just outside of Zion National Park. I've been vacationing in Springdale since I was a kid because my grandparents lived there and my aunt and uncle owned a bit of the town, including the Pioneer Lodge motel. No family lives there anymore, but we still stay at the lodge when we visit. The town has really grown over the years but there are still no fast food eatieries (yay!) and the town basically shuts down around 9PM. The town grocery store closed up last year so when we arrived, we walked down to the store at the entrance to Zion to pick up some milk.
