The Grand Canyon

CHAPTER 3

There has been plenty written about the Grand Canyon by much more eloquent writers than I to do it more than enough justice, so I won’t even attempt to add my own paltry insights, except to say that if you haven’t seen it yet, you should definitely make the effort.

We spent two solid days driving and walking around the south rim of the canyon, and probably would have spent more if it hadn’t been so bloody cold and windy. You might think that we don’t look too bundled up in the photos and infer that I am exaggerating about the cold, but the reality is we thought we were headed to the sunny hot desert of Arizona, and thus packed a little light on the winter weather clothes- luckily, the amazing views had the same warming effect as a dram of whiskey, and we persevered to see a majority of the viewpoints- but sadly, just like the whiskey does, it wore off all too soon, and before we knew it, we were back on the road, headed south to Scottsdale for our big rendezvous with the Drays.
