Yesterday we arrived in Bryce Canyon, went to a couple of viewpoints, and returned to camp with the idea that today we'd go to all the viewpoints and perhaps hike down into the canyon.
Well, here's what happened!
Farview Point, elevation 8819. The view, at "Farview" was not so far, and it was beginning to snow...
Aqua Canyon View Point, more snow...
Rainbow Point, elevation 9115. Funny, the higher we go...
Even Mr. Raven was pretty grumpy about the weather.
Headed down again, Natural Bridge viewpoint...
Descending further, the snow began changing to sleet...
At Fairland Point, down at elevation 7758, the Hoodoos came out to play, but the sky is still pretty socked in...
What will tomorrow bring? More snow and cold, we hear. The question - will we stick around or move on?

Even in that misty snow, the landscape is tear-inducingly beautiful. And the warmth of your smiles -- to say nothing of the fabulous scarf you're wearing (!!) -- says volumes about how you felt about the whole caper. Riding right along with you, dear friend.
