Sunday, August 28th 2011 Utah

I rose at 6:45 here in Yurtopia and Sean was up shortly. The kids were still snoozing and all was quiet except for the rushing of the river down in the canyon floor.

The Sleeping Beauties.
This photo is decepetive as it was barely getting light when I took it. And, as dawn broke it was like none other I had seen.

I don't think any of us had ever seen anything quite like this before.

I found it difficult to select the best photos, so here is a series of several.

This spectacle was certainly a fitting end to my Utah visit as tomorrow I will be moving on.

Many thanks to Sean, Dolores and the kids for making this visit a memorable one!

 

Next stop - the Great Basin of eastern Nevada.
Seeya then...
