Still in Milford

As of now we are still in Milford.  We thought things were slowing down with the virus, and we'd be going back to life after next week.  But we just got word that the governor said we wouldn't be back in school until May 1st.  And some states are now calling for a shelter in place.  If Utah follows suite and calls for a shelter in place, we will get packed up and hurry home to shelter in place there.  Yesterday, we drove to Bryce Canyon.  I'd never been there and the drive and day out was awesome.  All the visitors centers, gift shops, hotels, and restaurants were closed, but we were able to drive through the park and get out at the look outs and see the amazing canyon.  There was still quite a bit of snow up at the top, but my kids had snowball fights and had fun getting out and running around.  We struggled a little finding a place to eat.  Some restaurants are open for take out only, so we decided on a place called Big Fish Family Restaurant.  The food was delicious and what limited service she could give us was phenomenal.   I want to make a trip back to Panguitch just for another meal at this restaurant. 

 
On the way into Bryce Canyon we drove through another canyon called Red Canyon.  I wanted to stop there on the way back out because it was also really cool looking.  This one was fun because we got out and walked around more, and the kids could climb on the rocks and stuff.  Next time we come to Panguitch for lunch, we'll spend some more time playing in Red Canyon. 
And enjoying our lunch in the car since restaurants aren't open for dine in, everything is to go.
