Day trips rock!

Took a day and went down "south" to Kolob Canyon and Cedar Breaks in southern Utah a few weeks ago and I am just now getting around to posting the pics from the trip!

It was such a nice day to take a drive, and we took the t-tops off the firebird to enjoy a little sunshine along the way.

As you can see, the sky was a perfect blue, the rock in Kolob is a nice deep red and the trees are the perfect green to create such a gorgeous day!

I love how the trees can grow right out of the side of the sandstone... look at the roots of this one!

... and this rock reminded me of a lizard!

There are many flowers to see along the canyon road... bless Roger's heart, he let me get out and take pics of any and all I desired!

He even stopped so I could take a picture of a silly rock!   But just look how it broke off the original one... can you imagine what it must be like to see here in the canyon with one of the larger mountains??  Awesome to think about, isn't it?

The next few are just some more of the drive along the canyon road.  Hard to capture the beauty of this place.  I really tried, but it isn't easy.

Here is our proof we were there!

Off to Cedar Breaks!  It is on the way to Brian Head... a ski resort in south-central Utah up in the Dixie National Forest. ( If you are at all interested)  LOL

Stopped to take a pic of the Aspen Trees... oh, and Roger, too! :O)

Lots of things to see on the way....   a little waterfall !

We're here!  Yay!  This is the first view we see.....

Amazing, isn't it?  I am so in awe of what we constantly find hidden here in our own backyard! Our Father in Heaven has given us so many beautiful things to enjoy here on earth, hasn't He?  Here... enjoy some more!

Couldn't resist a couple more of ourselves to say "We were HERE!"

What a wonderful day it was ! 

Parting shot..... more flowers on the side of the freeway going home!
