A different view of winter

I have always enjoyed looking at photos that show the snow on the red sandstone in the Bryce Canyon and Zions National Park areas... of course, the professionals that take those pictures are able to be in the right place at the right time it seems.  I have wanted to take pictures like that for as long as I can remember.

One weekend, I got an urge to do just that.  So, I asked Mom if she would like to join me, and off we went.  We drove down to Bryce Canyon and got there just about sunset... of course, it being as late as it was, the light just wasn't what I wanted, so we stayed the night at Ruby's Inn.  It has been around since the early 1900's... very nice hotel.  Mom and I were able to spend some quality time together and admire some of God's greatest work yet !

I thought this looked alot like a temple... spires and all !

This was taken near sunrise the next morning... I would've liked to have had a little more sunlight, but you get what you can get, right?

On the way back home coming through Red Canyon, I spied these interesting tracks.... I am not sure, but they look to be bunny tracks.... what do you think?

On another note, as I was browsing thru the images on my CF card, I came across this one of my little nephew munching on popcorn and watching a movie as Katie and I were packing up her house for the big move to Roosevelt... and, as I have said many many times before, isn't he just the cutest li'l guy you've ever seen??  :O)
