Trip Report: The Perfect Family Trip!
EDIT: I wanted to add this link here at the beginning. Ragusa's Summer 2014 Trailer Hello friends! We have been home for two months, but I am just now feeling like getting to the trip repo...

Short drive north to Kanab, Utah. We were only stopping here because we were a day early for our reservation at Zion. (By the way, my family was most excited about Grand Canyon, but I secretly couldn't wait for Zion)
This county is known for being a movie location for many, many movies. We stayed at Crazy Horse campground, which was really a dump, but it did have a nice setting and a pool! The boys enjoyed a break from the routine.
Hard to do much with just a half day, but we saw a few things. The guy at the visitors center suggested a BLM road that took us back to the set of "Gunsmoke".
We also stopped at "Little Hollywood". It's really a Tshirt shop that stores old movie sets in the back yard. :) For being as planned as we were, the bearing blowout forced us to be spontaneous for a few days. It was nice to feel like we were discovering things. Even the junky Tshirt shops are fun!
Here we are sitting at the saloon from the set of "The Outlaw Josie Wales".
Next stop: Zion!
