Yesterday, when I got up and after I let Noah out, I sat down at my
\ncomputer to work on something.  Eric came down and left for work, and I
\nwent back to my computer.  At about 8 am, I got up to go to the
\nbathroom and had an epiphany.  I had not made Eric’s coffee or lunch! 
\nI had totally forgotten, and even his leaving empty-handed didn’t
\nremind me.  Oops!  He, of course, doesn’t mind because Battelle has a
\ncafeteria with multiple coffee and lunch options, but still…I can’t
\nbelieve I totally forgot!<\/p>\n

I vaccuumed my house yesterday to stay ahead of the fuzzy dog hair that
\nNoah leaves around.  Eric is seriously opposed to getting dog hair on
\nhis nice clothes, which I totally understand.  But I think we can
\nmanage to keep the clothes “safe” for one week!  I also took Noah on a
\nwalk and worked on my computer.  I actually did work yesterday for
\nclasses and the fall.  And I finally updated our small group website
\nfor the summer’s activities.  <\/p>\n

Today, I am going to run errands, I think: get some groceries, drop off
\nthe recyclables, maybe look for Holly’s birthday present.  Sadly, I
\nwill also need to make cookies again today, I think, since the cookies
\nI made the other day do not taste right.  I can’t figure out what I
\ndid, but they are not very good.    Oh well…that gives me something to do, I guess!<\/p>\n

Anyway, here’s part 3 of our vacation (this one is shorter!).<\/p>\n

Memorial Day weekend was spent at Bryce Canyon and Zion National
\nParks.  We started in Bryce on Friday night and finished on Saturday
\nmorning, and then we drove to Zion, found a place to stay, and visited
\nZion on Sunday.  Bryce is pretty small, so there wasn’t much to see. 
\nIt was 95 degrees when we were in Zion, so we ran out of energy pretty
\nfast.  And by this time in our trip, we were getting a bit bored by the rocks…so, the best part of both of these parks is the return of
\ntrees.  There’s more water in this corner of Utah, so there was more
\nvegetation.  Not lots, mind you…but definitely more!<\/p>\n

Here’s Bryce Canyon.  Notice the raven.  He was huge!  And, though the signs telling you to leave the wildlife alone were posted in MULTIPLE foreign languages, people were still feeding and bothering the animals. Stupid people!
<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n

By the way, these rock formations are called Hoodoos.
\n <\/a> <\/a> <\/p>\n

And here’s Zion NP.  These peaks all have “religious” sounding names because the Mormons were the first white people through here.  First is the Pulpit and the Altar.  The next are two of the three Patriarchs (Abraham and Isaac, I think.  There is a peak named for Jacob, but it was to the right of the shot).  Then a couple of other views we saw.<\/p>\n
