Sometimes when you read the news you wonder what is wrong with some people. But then I like to find the news that reminds you what is right with people. Folks work very hard and when they take vacations they would have every reason to want to just rest. I love so much that some, go to help.
Animal lovers who love to travel the West will like this: L.A. Times' readers nominated the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in southwest Utah as one of the best "Secret Spots of the West" in this week's Travel section.
Times' staff writer Hugo MartÃn paints us a picture of the place:
Angel Canyon, a postcard-perfect, rust-colored sandstone canyon outside of Kanab, Utah, is home to the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, said to be the country's largest no-kill animal shelter.
Amid these 33,000 acres of sand, juniper and sagebrush, volunteers and sanctuary workers have built air-conditioned shelters, offices, banquet halls and outdoor enclosures to house and care for up to 2,000 abandoned animals, including horses, goats, pigs, birds, dogs, cats and rabbits. The rescued animals include 22 dogs confiscated from NFL quarterback Michael Vick's kennels in the Virginia dog-fighting case.
