Visit to Bryce Canyon

Bryce had to make a spontaneous trip down to St. George last weekend. So after taking care of his work and visiting with my brother, Benny, and his wife, Kayla, in Cedar City for the weekend, we decided to take a detour on the way home and visit Bryce Canyon. On the way there we drove through Red Canyon.  It was a nice preview of the rock formations that we would see soon afterwards.
Once we arrived, we stopped at the visitor center, watched a short film about the park, and looked around the little museum about the origins of the park and its early settlers and discovery.
Next we drove to some of the look-out points and saw the fabulous scenery.  There's not much prettier scenery than white and red limestone contrasting with snow.
Bryce has always wanted to visit the national park that shares his name, and not only did we see the park, but we saw his point as well.
And to top it all off, here are some panoramic views of a few of the canyons:
