Grand Canyon

Today, we visited the Grand Canyon. It is a beautiful, natural creation that is just awe-inspiring. We arrived around 5:00 pm, but we still had plenty of daylight, and the weather was beautiful.  We walked part of the Rim Trail.  I loved it!  I would have loved to have walked the entire Rim Trail. 

 There's water down there!  :-)


We drove to another area and walked a trail "back in time."  Every so many feet, there was a medallion on the sidewalk telling how old that area was.  We walked up through 3090 million years ago, and there was more trail to follow.

 There's water down there too!

The views are just breathtaking!

There was a geology museum that was very informative about the rock layers, age of rocks, and much more.


While driving through Grand Canyon National Park, we saw many Elk just eating along the side of the road and sidewalks.  People could literally walk right next to them.
