Day 4 - Spring Break at Bryce Canyon - Adults (and Annie) hike

Grandma and Grandpa were kind enough to take all five of the youngest kids for a big chunk of the day so that Star, Talina, David, Gregory,  and I could go up to Bryce Point, hike down that, do half of the Peek-A-Boo loop, across the middle of the valley and back up the half of the Navajo Loop trail that wasn't closed. It was a really fun couple hours, and totally gorgeous -- and it was SO much fun to take Annie -- she just loves being one of the 'adults' and she can out hike all of us anyway :-) Also nice to not have little kids with us when we were hiking over ice and snow on narrow paths with rocks littering the pathway (Annie won as the first of us to be hit with a falling rock, Star was hit next), and then back up the last part of Navajo with the steep switchbacks. There would have been far more whining had we brought the children!
