Canyon carousing




After a quick stop at the Hoover Dam (it was 109 degrees when we left Vegas at 10:30AM, I don't even want to know what the temp was an hr later when we got to the dam, suffice to say it was unbearable), we just had to at least dash into the park for a glimpse of the canyon when we arrived at Grand Canyon late Fri afternoon. It was all we expected and more. The view from the first place we encountered, which is as far as we went, went beyond our expectations, and then, just to make the experience complete, wandering in the woods next to the parking lot were a couple of deer. Can't wait to head out today to see what are supposed to be the most spectacular viewing points, and hike part of the way down. The biggest challenge right now is getting YD out of bed. LOL
