Enjoying the Grand Canyon!

Well, we made it to St. George. Had a wonderful visit at the Grand Canyon. No, we did NOT go to the bottom!!! I took many pictures of the bottom, does that count?? After all is said and done, I have 400 pictures to go thru!! One of the things I was absolutely enthralled with were the California Condors. They were just awesome. Very large, very ugly, but such beautiful flight!! After leaving Grand Canyon, we headed toward St. George. We decided to take 89A and we were quite pleased that we did. We had not taken 89A since 2004 and had forgotten what a boondockers paradise it was. We found a great place in the trees all alone with tons of room for the trav to run, and run he did. He loves the cooler weather. It was in the low 70's and he loved it. We enjoyed it so much, we decided to stay another nite. Nan had such a hard time sleeping because it was soooooooo quiet!! I loved it. No fan noise, no street noise, no coyotes howling, it was heaven. Here are a few shots for you to enjoy along with us.

Beginning Our 10th Year on the Road!

It's our 10th anniversary on the road and we are heading out tomorrow, Friday, April 20, 2012. We are excited and sad. We have enjoyed our winter at our new park and have made some great friends. Our neighbors are fantastic, our friends are awesome, and our lives have been perfect this winter. Nan has gotten into different projects and has enjoyed getting to do different things. She began with ceramics and has some of her projects packed to work on during the summer. She has also discovered the Happy Trails Wal-Mart (the dumpsters!) She has saved a gorgeous oak glider and an old fashioned rocking chair. She has refinished and restored both of them to gorgeous pieces. Kath has been killing herself playing pickleball, realizing that next year, she needs to learn to ration herself before she completely burns out. I will try to get posts out as often as possible. We plan on stopping at the Grand Canyon on our way north. After 3 nites there, we will head to St. George for a pickleball tourney for 2 days. Afterwards, heading to Salt Lake City to get a bin door repaired on Thelma. She doesn't like looking injured, so we have to get her fixed up pretty! After that, we'll head to Colorado for a month, Nebraska for a month and on to Michigan. We're looking forward to a great summer. Hope all have a great summer too and be safe!
