More photos from 2008 vacation

This album is special because I had planned this anniversary surprise for Gina waaaaay back in October 2007. Amazing I can keep a secret that long, huh? After this album, I have only Star Trek photo albums to send. Please let me know if you want those albums - I know some of you aren't into Trek.

Navajo Lake - on the way to Bryce - elevation nearly 10,000'

I'll bet EVERYONE takes this photo when they get to Bryce!

Gina tries to find Yovimpa Point in the Bryce book while I avail myself of the facilities.

We found it!

Yovimpa means "Place of the Pines" for obvious reasons...

We were alone here so I tried to set the camera on autoshoot

Starting to get the hang of the camera's auto setting

I give Gina a choice of anniversary presents

I'll take the red box - it's bigger!

What could it be???

Jewelry! I knew it!

I open the green box...

But I know what it is - I specially designed these pendants for us

The boxes were a surprise to me - the jeweler thought I was giving them as Xmas presents!

I wanted these to complement our matching wedding rings - see the similar curve design?

Gina LOVED...

LOVED....

LOVED it!

And I loved giving it to her, here at our special anniversary spot

As we were leaving Yovimpa, Gina found a friend

She gives the little horny toad a kiss

Apparently it got no hornier from the experience :--)

Sure worked on me, though! See? I did get the hang of the camera auto shoot!

This is Rainbow Point which is right next to Yovimpa Point

All the color variations no doubt account for this view's name

There's about 10 such scenic viewpoints throughout Bryce National Park

I could have gotten lots of great photos WITHOUT killing myself on that Peek-a-Boo Trail!

This is clearly the day BEFORE our killer hike experience

A better view of what was behind us on that log bench

Hoodoos here...

Hoodoos there...

Hoodoos, Hoodoos EVERYWHERE!

We want to rent a cute little RV like this and go to Yosemite next year
