Grand Canyon

Mike made arrangements for us to see the Grand Canyon on our way home from Arizona so we could have a little more time with Jason, Jen and Gavin. I haven't seen the Grand Canyon since I was a small kid. Didn't remember much about being there. It is a beautiful place. I was amazed at the colors and the emense size of it. Marie was stiff from the drive and needed help stretching which I was glad to ablige. We got there just before dark and a wind picked up along with some rain. It was freezing! Poor Jenny had been sick the whole drive down and couldn't eat. So we set her up in the room to take a warm bath (which we had to explain how to do). She wasn't sure about the whole "you just sit and soak" thing. When we got back from checking out the gift shop she was all warm and relaxed and able to sleep. We had a wonderful trip visiting Victor and his family and Jason, Jen and Gavin then the Grand Canyon. It ended all too soon, but life goes on so back to the grind we went and more painting and getting our house in order. (Sigh) It never ends!
