We have Internet service again!!

Internet service in Utah is very poor to say the least!! But considering the state has more canyons than people, I guess communication towers are not a top priority. We are now in Montrose, Colorado visiting my nephew Joe, his wife Shani and their beautiful kids Lucy and Daniel. I am going to try to catch up on the blog over the next couple of days.

Our first sightseeing tour when we reached Utah was Bryce Canyon National Park. As magnificent as the Grand Canyon was, I fell in love with Bryce Canyon. (Don't tell Ron...his favorite is still the GC) The Grand Canyon is so massive with over 1.2million acres that it takes your breath away. But the red rock formations of Bryce Canyon are unbelievable. It feels like your are so much closer from many of the overlooks.

We "only" took 118 pictures, here are a few....


This formation is titled "Amphitheatre".





One of many vistas of the Colorado Plateau.




A huge "hoodoo". For those of you who are like me and didn't know what that is....a hoodoo is a column of weathered and unusually shaped rocks


Multiple hoodoo's.





A natural bridge formed by wind, rain & erosion.





Hope you enjoyed the pictures and all is well!
