For the majority of the Covid lockdowns, I lived with two of my best friends in an apartment in Fayetteville, Arkansas. This occurred while I was finishing my senior year of college. I did not do much long distance traveling prior to this, but the pandemic gave me a desire to travel to my friends and me. So, once travel restrictions started to lift we planned a trip to Zion National Park in Utah, a place all of us wanted to go beforehand. We spent New Years Day traveling and spent the first week of January 2022 in freezing cold temperatures in Utah (as it made the camp site rental prices shoot way down.) It's a trip that still comes to mind frequently as I enjoyed it immensely. The attached photo is of the four of us atop Angel's Landing, one of the more famous hiking spots in the park. While Covid negatively affected much, the desire to travel more is something I am very grateful to have obtained.
