April 27-28 - 2018 Glendale, Utah


Friday, the 27th, we moved 270 miles (ca. 430 km) almost straight south from Draper to Glendale, Utah.
Halfway we stopped for gas. Right next to the gas station was a garage (værksted).
They had a guy in a golf cart driving around the pumps scouting for (på udkig efter) business.
Well, he found us!
😊
After we got 2 new tires on the camper in Vicksburg, we knew we would have to change the other 2 at some point.
The guy in the golf cart spotted that the time was NOW. They were really bad, and we would probably have had a blowout real soon. They also found out why our tires on the camper are worn on the inside.
The bushings in the spring suspensions (bøsningerne i fjederophænget) were totally worn out.
So we had new bushings (this time brass instead of plastic) put in.
From the time the guy spotted us at the pump till we were on the road again: 45 minutes!!
Saturday (April 28), we got up REAL early (4:15). A lot of the national parks have “sunrise” and “sunset” points – places where it is best to see the beginning and end of the day. We have never seen either at the parks, so we decided today was the day! We drove to Bryce Canyon National Park and saw a beautiful sunrise.
 

The thing that is special about seeing sunrise at Bryce Canyon, is that the sunlight makes the rocks glow.
It was amazing and beautiful.


The first 2 pictures are taken at sunrise at Bryce Point. The next 2 are taken around noon at the same place. Notice  how different the colors are.


The park was amazing. And big - we drove 40 miles (ca. 65km) in there.
Again, we took many pictures and again, we had trouble choosing which ones to put on the blog.
Here are our choices…

  1. So Very Beautiful. Now you know the reason why Photographers call the half hour after Sunrise and Before Sunset the Golden Hour. It's the best time of day for amazing light in their photos.
