4/4/2009 - Bryce Canyon

 We drove up to Bryce Canyon for one day even though we were still not feeling very well.  We were leaving Utah on the 6th, so this was our last chance.  It was around an hour and a half up there, but it was definitly worth it.  The formations in the park are called Hoodoos.  These hoodoos were really awesome with all the different colors, especially with the snow mixed in.  It snowed  the day before we went up there and we had snow flurries on the drive home.  I'm sure this will be our last chance    to see snow before heading east, so we were happy to see it.  There were several hiking trails that we missed out on again due to being sick.  It was a very cold and windy day.  The wind was around 25 mph and the temp at the highest point in the park, Rainbow Point, was 23 degrees at 3:00 pm.  So, who knows what the wind chill factor was.  That was really good for our flu!  Next journal will be Dallas, TX.  We are on our way home to FL.
