Hikin' the Slots

James had to go to meetings in Cedar City so we joined him. We love Cedar for the motel swimming pool, the best shaved ice, and of course the ultimate cinnamon rolls. After the meetings were over, we ventured to Kanarraville Creek for a hike up the canyon. We started up the path and almost turned around because it was HOT and we weren't sure how far or what was up ahead, but we kept going. I am SO glad that we did! We found the most amazing slot canyon ever! It was one of those hikes that you MUST do!!! We hiked through narrow slot canyons that were filled with water. The water was freezing, but it felt good because of the heat. Around every turn, there was a surprise. The slot canyons narrowed and we saw beautiful waterfalls. At the first one, there was an old tree and a rope that we all climbed up (going up was the easy part, coming down was more challenging). Then up a little further, there was a water fall off a rock. The kids decided it looked like a great slide and slid off the rock into the water below. We hiked through yet another slot full of waist high water and came to one more waterfall. It was great!!! It is so fun to see that you don't need slides at seven peaks, you just need a creek and a slick rock. You don't need to go buy expensive necklaces, you just make them out of the reeds along the shore. You don't need to spend money to do the things that are the most fun, and doing them with the people I love make them even better.
