Wow. So It's been an entire winter season since I have blogged. I apologize to any fans I might have. It was a very busy winter. I worked a lot, maybe had 5-10 days off all winter. And when I got home in the evening or later I was just too tired to write and recall...

Anyhow I should make myself write about my days, there are lots of stories to tell, daily events, work stories, old memories, times with friends, stuff.

We just got back from our spring break trip... 10 days down in southern Utah and Arizona, starting with picking up Andrew in Salt Lake to follow us down to Natural Bridges National Monument where we camped together for 3 nights, each night a family of friends from Big Sky joining us at the camp site. And where we were also joined by on and off snow, waking up to 3 inches of snow one morning...

Then it was on to Havasu Falls, stopping at Muley Point on the way, and spending a night on Route 66 in what will forever be remembered as the bunkhouse at Grand Canyon Caverns...

Then the 10 mile hike to Havasupai Campground and 3 wonderful days and nights on the Supai Reservation visiting the waterfalls, Little Navaho, Havasu, Mooney and Beaver Falls....

Then it was onto the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, and a drive through Zion National Park with a 30 minute scramble on the slick rock and then back to SLC and then home...

And here are the photos!
