Bye Bye, RV – Hello, Grand Canyon 

Last night, Daddy woke us up at 1am to take a look at the stars.  It is claimed that one can see 7500+ stars in these parts but only about 2500+ in most other places.  Not sure if that’s true or not but the black sky sure did sparkle!

We didn’t make it to Zion this weekend (tunnel closure and horseback riding) so we decided to drive through on our way to drop off the RV.  The combination of red roads and huge red rocks was breath-taking.  One regret is that we didn’t get to do any hiking -we just didn’t have the time.

The next stop was the North Rim Campground of the Grand Canyon.  Thankfully, the water pipe was restored so there was cold water (no hot!).  We walked the Transept hike along to the rim to the North Rim Lodge and Angel’s point.  Grand is truly a perfect way to describe these canyons.  And they are much greener than I expected.  We had cheese and crackers on the boulders, wine and pizza on the Lodge patio, and ice cream back at the the Campground General Store.
