Haha, sorry - been busy here in Vegas!

Should have some pictures from the Valley of Fire and Bryce Canyon after the weekend.

Weather was indeed perfect.

We went back and forth about going to Yellowstone but with 4 days, we decided to go rafting instead.

Hope you have more time! We'll definitely be heading to Yellowstone at some point in the future.

In the 6th image, is that the whole family on the hike? If so, reminds me of childhood when our family went on 6-week long journeys to all National Parks in all 4 corners of the country.

It makes wonderful memories for youngsters to tell your grandchildren.

That is a whole family - but not ours!

This trip was just my wife and me; our 3 year old can barely walk 2 min at Disney World without wanting to be carried, so he's not ready just yet.

I took our 5 year old on a 1.5 mile hike through the Valley of Fire here in Vegas yesterday in 95 degree weather - he tore it up like a champ.

I think we're going to wait a year before taking them on trips like these - then they'll both be ready (we hope!).

Cool. I have been inside that barn. It's held together with steel cables. Schwabacher Landing is quite something in the morning sunrise. Looks like a great trip.

Yes - went to Schwabacher during one sunrise and Mormon Row on another. You can probably tell from a couple of my pics here

The feeling of seeing those mountains light up more than makes up for the 530 am wake up. My wife doesn't even notice me leave anymore during our vacations - she knows it's standard practice!

Yes, very true as well. We're watching our 5 year old grow up so fast, and I'm like slow down, dude...I still want you to be a baby.

Great pics! I was there only a year ago and remember that barn!
Unfortunately we had clouds covering the mountains.

Still a great scene with all the snow in the mountains. Clouds can sometimes be awesome in photos.
