Oct 28, 2009 - Kanab, UT via Las Vegas, NV

I wrote this travel log entry the old fashioned way (pen & paper) on the plane between Salt Lake City, UT and Pasco, WA. Return trip from Kanab, UT took almost as long as a return from Finland! I was so sick of sitting I could barely stand it! Hahahah! I bet poor John was sick of waiting for me at the airport, too – the flight was an hour late. ... Then I travelled to Kanab and visited the sanctuary for a day. ... Everything was just fantastic! The conference, the workshops, the sanctuary.I wrote this travel log entry the old fashioned way (pen & paper) on the plane between Salt Lake City, UT and Pasco, WA.

Oct 26, 2009 - Our visit to Canyonlands National Park
