Sundance, Rock Canyon, and the Grotto

As I mentioned, the moms like to keep moving and there was some sort of an activity or two every day. We rode the lift at Sundance to Bearclaw for spectaculars views and some excellent nachos. I promised Anna I would go up Rock Canyon with her, but only if we went before sunrise. Payson Canyon beckoned and we made the short hike to the Grotto which was lovely and cool on a hot July day. We finished the trip with a stop in Payson at Daley Freez for some goodies.

Refreshment

There were many other activities, but these are the ones I attended. There is still more of this madcap month, but this is all for now.
