Grand Canyon

Monday we all took it easy, we stayed home and did laundry and household chores. John and Kathy are staying at a time share and they sat through a presentation. We all met up for dinner at the Barking Frog Grill, http://www.barkingfroggrille.com/. What a wonderful meal! Three of us had seafood and Jim had a steak dish. We shared a bottle of chardonnay and enjoyed ourselves immensely.

Tuesday we went to the Grand Canyon. John drove and did a fine job of navigating the winding twisting roads! Highway 89 is gorgeous and we drove it all the way north of Flagstaff to Highway 64. Going west on this road leads to the east entrance to the Canyon. We stopped and looked at some Navajo Vendors along the way and Kathy and I both bought a necklace.

Once we entered the Park it was time for pictures! The guys had a blast stopping at the overlooks and taking shot after shot of the views. As you can see it was a hazy day. Kathy also took some pictures but mostly enjoyed the scenery. As many of you know I don’t do well with heights so I didn’t look down much. But it sure is a deep canyon! Guess that’s why they call it grand!

Some time during the day we ate our picnic lunch. Around 1500 we started back towards Sedona and home. We were fortunate enough to see the moon rise and it was a sight to behold. Full moon too! It was dark when we got back and we went our separate ways.

Once home I had some soup because I was starving to death. I guess I needed to pack more sandwiches!
