At the Grand Canyon
I know, I haven’t blogged in a couple of days….so here we go!!!
The Grand Canyon was awesome! In the morning, we walked decided to have the boys become Jr. Ranger’s. So we found an official park ranger and she explained the whole process to the boys. They had four activities to complete and one ranger program to attend. All of this had to be finished before 400pm that day, because that’s when our sunset tour started. We walked to many different points along the canyon rim. At each place, the boys sat down and described what they saw or drew a picture of their experience. The best part was finding the cacti. My youngest, Joey, 4, thought we were in Radiator Springs, which is from the movie Cars. At long last, the tour came and honestly, it was just okay. The sunset was great however. THe colors of the canyon walls lit up and were beautiful. Thankfully, the day was finally over because every one of us were tired. They say it’s a dry heat, but come on…it’s hot no matter what! And for those of you in North Carolina…the pine tree pollen was horrible here. Our RV and Jeep were covered. I now know that I’m allergic to the green pollen because my allergies were acting up!
