Today we decided to take a short hike to Weeping Rocks.  We packed Bob’s small backpack with snacks, walking sticks, and water.  Since we have to catch the shuttle at the Visitor’s Center, we went in to check on the weather and the fire.  We rode the shuttle to the Weeping Rocks stop and started our very short hike to Weeping Rocks.  Weeping Rocks is an area with an overhang that has water dripping down from the overhang.  It is caused by water seeping through layers of rock.  When the water reaches a layer of rock that it can not seep through, the water goes to the edge where it drips from the edge.  In effect, the dripping water collects and creates an ecosystem like a swamp.  Many of the plants were plants that would grow in a swampy area.  After Bob took many pictures (He loves his new camera.) from Weeping Rock, we hiked back to the bus stop which we rode to the Museum. 

At the museum, we looked at the exhibits until the video about Zion was about to start in the auditorium.  When the video started, we noticed that they had closed captioning under the movie screen.  We were happy to see that they had closed captioning for Bob.  As the video started, we also noticed that there was no sound.  Some of the people in the auditorium got up and went out to tell the rangers about the snafu.  The rangers came in and told us that they were having technical difficulties and were working on it.  A young girl in the audience read the closed captioning to her younger brother.  Everyone in the audience had to read the closed captioning as they watched the video.  The sound did not come on during the whole video.
