Labor Day Camping

We went camping to Bryce Canyon for Labor Day Weekend.

Once a year you have to get the tent out and go camping.

It makes you appreciate the little pleasures of life,

the bed, the bathroom, and the kitchen.

Besides it is always nice to have an"electronics free" weekend.

We always love to spend time with Katie & Jeremy.

I forgot my hat, so Katie fashioned one for me from my matching bandana.

We set off on a great hike and were glad that Darbie & Kristie came to join us...

Riley trying his yoga moves on the rocks...

Darbie and I are about the same height....

After our hike we had a picnic lunch...

Riley loves the rocks..

Enjoying the "Beautiful Country"

We were exhausted...

Riley did homework...

We did some dutch oven cooking...

Kaite made boondoogle and Riley did more homework...

We played some catch...

Sunday we went to the Bryce Branch,

Katie was the chorister
Mike said the opening prayer
Riley blessed the Sacrament.

There is something about small branches of the Church that I love.

On our way home we explored the cute town of Panguitch
We love small towns.
Everyone town we visit Mike thinks we could retire there.

We missed Sam, but in less than a year he will be home !
