Like I mentioned, we spent a day (my birthday:)) at Bryce Canyon National Park. There are some pretty spectacular things to see in there. We drove the route, took a little hike, and ate our picnic lunch just in time to run to the car. The afternoon storms rolled in right on cue.
Looking down then up the trail on our way to Wall Street.
We hiked the hoodoos! This was the picture I was meant to show the park ranger at the visitors' center to get the kids some Jr. Ranger badges. Our camera died as I was getting the picture up. Fortunately, he took my scout's honor promise of the picture's existence and everyone got a shiny badge to take home.
The clouds rolling in made for an impressive view. They also made for a great hiking incentive.
The drive had several gorgeous lookouts. The grown ups took advantage of the scenery...
... and the cousins took advantage of the time out of the car to be silly. Papa Ray always had one or two hanging off of him.
It's okay Grace. We know you didn't do it.
The best view of all!
