| HooDoos!! |
Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, we arrived at Bryce Canyon National Park. First we learned that it's not a canyon, but rather a millions-year-old sea bed comprised of sandstone layers which have been colored mostly by iron and magnesium. As the yearly rains and, more importantly, constant freezing and thawing of the land, has eroded the soil leaving a unique series of upright sandstone 'columns' called Hoodoos. Our guide told us that this type of landscape exists nowhere else on earth! It is surely a mesmerizing sight to behold. Took lots and lots of photos - it's hard not to - but will share just a few here:

Weather today has been overcast and very, very windy. The RV is shaking from stem to stern and an awning is not even a consideration. We are enjoying a quiet afternoon relaxing, watching movies and resting some very weary muscles! We're definitely not the most experienced or capable hikers... but we did climb Inspiration Point today and it was worth it but left us a bit weary.
