Day Five Bryce Canyon & Zion Canyon



Kathie was up early again searching for the Sunrise, when to her surprise 
she found a real cowboy bring out his horses.



After breakfast we were off to hike the Queens Garden in Bryce Canyon


This is how we had to hike down into the Queens Garden



About half way down looking back up at the sky



Sign says " End of Trail "
Yea right!
Which means we made it to the bottom.  
Crap, now we have to climb back up


What an amazing view


Up, Up, Up 




We made it back to the top
Ya right, give me 5



We took a drive to see the rest of Bryce Canyon.




 Stopping at points like Ponderosa Point (Elv. 8904)



Natural Bridge


Busy morning, Now we are off to Zion Canyon


But first lunch at the Thunderbird Restaurant


On our way we had to stop and see the llama's grazing on the side of the road


Time to find another trail to hike


First we did a short 1/2 mile walk following the river from Weeping Rock to Hidden Canyon


Then we walked down to the Narrows (another mile)


It was beautiful but, we were tired


Taking time to rest our weary feet in the ice cold water


After that we found another trail going to Emerald Pool's so off we went for another 1/2 mile trek 



As it was getting dusk the deer started coming down to the creek 


As we were heading towards "Seven Wives B&B" 
Sue saw her first ever apple tree!!  How exciting



The Sun Setting


The Moon Rising
Good Night All!
