WOW...I hate to use such a simple word for nature's artwork, but it is soooo much better to see in person; of course. It is truly mind boggling, to have water, wind and the elements carving out this canyon, seeing all the different colored rock, a time line of earth. We walked the Rim Walk, meandering our way around the South Rim, looking at the various red & beige colored striations of 1 billion years in the making. It was cold and windy, but perfect for the walk and not many people were there. A perfect day! The only animal sightings were a squirrel and mule deer. :(
And now it is raining at 8:15 p.m. On to Alburquerque tomorrow, Amarillo the following day and then Oklahoma City.
how exciting Gay, thanks for letting me come along with you and Brian!!!!
