    3. Thanks for letting us know about the article. As a nursing student in the late 60's I spent 3 months at Bryce - it was a great experience for most of us as well as having great food, beautiful spring weather, etc. Often we would walk thru the back field to the cemetery; sometimes take a picnic lunch to eat there. This was, of course, before the road was built so most of the markers were still there. Even then it was in disrepair, mostly with grass, etc. Think I have a picture of it. So glad its being restored.
