Happy Father's Day!
Brandon, Marie and the kids invited Grandpa and me to go for a ride and picnic with them to Bryce Canyon National Park! We left after chuch and had a great time! The park was not charging a fee, so we drove up and into the park and found a place for our picnic. Brandon and Marie barbequed hamburger and hotdogs with all the trimmings. Mmm good!
We drove on up through the park and stopped at the pullouts and walked the trails to see the incredible pinnacles of Bryce Canyon. It is really amazing.
We even called Great Grandpa Nelson from out on one of the points to wish him Happy Father's Day. He was quite surprised to hear where we were calling him from! We all had a good visit with him.
We came back down the canyon and stopped at Old Bryce Town by Ruby's Inn and wandered around there. Grandpa treated us all to ice cream cones! Yummy! We headed for home and arrived here at bedtime! What a fun day...time together, beautiful scenery, and good food. Doesn't get much better than that, unless we could have stayed. We are trying to plan a time to do just that...camp for the weekend!
