    Did my presentation last night....forgot to mention a couple of things but nothing major. Didn't drop any F bombs in the middle of it so I think that's a victory since I do have a pretty bad potty mouth. Folks had a ton of questions which I was surprisingly able to answer correctly. Class size is usually 30, they upped that to 36 and still had 30 people on the waiting list. Had about 42 people show up. I attend a lot of the different classes and lectures that they present at the store and its been a long time since there has been a full house!
    Good news is the lady who organizes all of this was impressed and wants me to come back - even said she'd be open to me doing something on Yellowstone Park. Super excited about that since there is no end to local "experts" available to talk about Yelly.

    :D Thanks Andy!
    Been a while since I've done any public speaking - didn't used to swear as much as I do now so I was worried I'd slip up at some point

    Nice trip report.

    I went through there in July 2017. Zion was crowded but I found parking fairly easily and always was able to get on buses and not have to wait for the next one. I came into the state from the North and only had 4 days so I skipped Monument Valley too. Went out through St. George and back to Los Angeles.

    I kept driving in and out of rain & thunderstorms. Was a great trip.
