Bryce Canyon


We made our way into the national park this morning and were not disappointed.  Although there was a threat of snow last night (it was 34 when we got up) it did not materialize.  We had a forecast for today that included rain but we were lucky and could only see it off in the distance.  The threat of snow is back on tonight along with possible thunder storms and 25 degree temps.  The crowds of people like us have been modest (for a place like this) and we have always found a parking place where we wanted to stop.  We are grateful for that because it makes the visit much more pleasant.

Here are a few pictures from today's excursion.

The first up close Hoodoo

A whole lot of Hoodoos.  (I like that word - can you tell?)

My favorite for variety and texture.  God was having a good year (or two) when this was created.
As usual what is missing here is a feel for the scale of all this.
