10,000 in UTAH

We have wanted to return to Red and Bryce Canyons ever since we went there back in 1969.


These canyons, and others, are in southern Utah. From here we went to Las Vegas in Nevada.


I'm not all that good a photographer unfortunately. These landscapes are really HEAPS better in the flesh than my best efforts with the Panasonic Lumix.


I figure that a picture is worth a thousand words.... so I'd better stop talking and let the photos do it for me.


Bryce Canyon is incredibly huge. You have to drive from view point to view point.










Just shot this out of the car window as Fay was heading away from the canyons.


This part was quite spectacular.

After leaving Utah we had 2 sleeps in Las Vegas, Nevada. Since Vegas, we've travelled through Arizona and now into Gallup, New Mexico. We're headed east towards Wichita! Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Just heard about Joplin being devastated. Over 100 dead, and remember, they were READY for tornadoes in that area! It'll take us another 2 days to reach Wichita, Kansas. Oh, forgot, I traded a Victorian number plate for 4 plates (New Mexico and Arizona!)

Grahame,

Great pics of Bryce! It appears that you had a great day to visit. As you now know this can be a violent time of year weather wise. Be safe friends and hope to see you if possible.

Wil
