To get from Flagstaff to the Grand Canyon, you drive through a very unlikely coniferous forest (Kaibab Natl Forest). - IMG 2946
Look! A canyon! It's grand! - IMG 2947
Did I mention Grand? In spanish grande means big. Aren't the similarities between the languages fascinating? - IMG 2948
I mean, you've got two words, and they are from *totally different languages* but they sound similar, and they have similar meanings! WOW! - IMG 2949
It's really these things that remind my that I'm part of a world community, part of a "global village," if you will. - IMG 2950
Who are these people and why are they in half the pictures? - IMG 2966
It's cool because there's a tree. - IMG 2967
Again. Flashbacks to day 1. - IMG 2968
There in the middle you can see a windy trail that we took down to the floor of the canyon, to get a better sense of the size of the place. Oh, wait. No. We didn't go down there because it was really fucking hot. That's right. - IMG 2969
Ug with stick tend fire. Woman prepare meet. - IMG 2971
So we're not the greatest outdoor cooks. Just because our charcoal isn't hot can't stop us! Hyperventilating and passing out to keep the fire oxygenated was well worth it for mediocre steak and slightly-charred carrots. - IMG 2972
Obligatory sunset shot. Careful viewers will notice that the sun has been meticulously removed with Photoshop. You can't trust anyone these days. - STA 2977
Careful viewers will notice that the moon has been meticulously added with Photoshop. You can't trust anyone these days. - IMG 6137
And for the less depressing part of the day: waterfall swimming in Erwan National Park. - IMG 6138

This place reminded me very strongly of Hamilton Pool outside Austin, just slightly more tropical. (http://www.texasoutside.com/hamiltonpic.htm) - IMG 6140
I actually took my camera out into the water to get this pictures--not the smarted move, maybe, but it turned out just fine. - IMG 6141
