Travel: Willis Creek Slot Canyon, 1 of 2
2025-05-29 - Kanab, UT - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com.
Robert writes, "One of the highlights of our recent trip was hiking this slot canyon. It is reported the state has over a 1,000 of them, with many of the more popular ones in the southern portion of the state. Willis Creek slot canyon is around 23 miles from Bryce Canyon National Park. Leaving the main paved road, the final 6 mile gravel road has some steep, somewhat spooky-at the edge of cliffs driving, along with washboard roads...well you soon start to second guess yourself if this was such a good idea.
But if you settle your nerves, and complete the drive, the payoff is worth it in the end. It is a beautiful slot canyon. We racked up 2.7 miles in total hiking. I believe there were 5 sections of slots, and each one seemed to get better than the last. We turned around when they seemed to be ending, but were told they continue if you hike further down the trail."

Christa Montgomery Gimbel visits Shiloh
2025-05-28 - Adair Co., KY - Photo from Mike Watson.
Christa Montgomery Gimbel, whose father was a native of the Joppa community of Adair County, poses beside the Shiloh Christian Church and Cemetery historical marker.
The plaque reads: Shiloh Christian Church is a testament to the deep religious beliefs of those who founded it. The church's first building was wooden, erected in 1875, and rebuilt with brick in 1952. Thomas B. Johnson donated the land originally, the Montgomery's donated the wood, and Jasper Bryant provided the carpentry. Quintellian "Kint" Montgomery built the first pulpit.
Richmond B. Reeves led the rebuilding of the church after it burned. Many amenities have been added since. Nearby Clear Springs School opened in 1911 and closed in 1953. It shared some of the church's facilities and burned in 2023.
