...at containing by far the most beautiful thing seen thus far. However first a stop in Vegas to seem my very hospitable family.
As is our style, dogs...wherever we stay...Tyese LOVED (to squeeze) Bugsy.
Lastly there shall be a little album of Havasu falls. The night before we slept in our sleeping bags in the parking lot on top of a butte (the best sleep I have had all trip)..among many other hikers doing the same. Since we are competitive we managed to get out and down the canyon before anyone else (Tyese and I high five-ing now in remembered success). The hike down was ugly, ugly, ugly, well desert anyway. Then out of no where! Oasis.
The hike out was long and hot and far. This turned out to be about a 30 mile day. Then more driving to the Cali coast where we are now. Finally now that this is done.....we are going to the beach. Catch up later in San Fran if all goes well.

ha. first comment is mine
I see you are cleansing yourselves with the refreshing waters of Lake Minitonka
tyese i think you have some real issues with this dog squeezing. should we find you a support group or something?
Darn it- I got on a couple of minutes ago and no one had posted, and I wrote a long comment for the Utah post, and while I was doing that Jamison snuck in and beat me to first post! If I wasn't mistaken, the first to post wins an all expense paid trip to the Grand Canyon. Missed out on that one! Las Vegas brings back bad memories of 118 degree heat and hoping that Armageddon didn't start while you were there. Only being at the Vatican gives you a creepier feeling. Nice picture of the fountains-makes me think of the Ocean's movies- did you see Clooney, Pitt, Damon, Cheadle, Casey Affleck, or any of the gang? And seriously- stunningly gorgeous photos of Havasu Falls. Wow- I wish we could have done that hike- definitely on the to do list now. It is breathtaking. I'm sure that hike was very rewarding, too. I'll have to find out more about what you did at the canyon later.
Ahh- too much to remember! First, did you experience "Arizona time" where they are against daylight savings time? We were so confused. And also... have an awesome time on the California coast! At Big Sur go to Bixby Canyon Bridge where Jack Kerouac wrote his last novel and Ben Gibbard wrote.... "Bixby Canyon Bridge" the first song on the new Death Cab For Cutie album that came out Tuesday!.... and is awesome.
yes tyese u have to take me there to those falls soooo pretty :)
WOW! That place looks absolutely beautiful! I need to get there sometime; perhaps by helicopter!
Those falls are another place I want to stop at now :)
The pool at the bottom and the rocks around it remind me of some of the Yellowstone pools, I wonder what they have in common?
Those pics of the falls are gorgeous!! LC - Did you squeeze the doggy til his tongue popped out? hehe
We've really been enjoying your trip with you! Cory finally showed me how to send a comment. We totally surprised Cory with a going away party today! Only his favorite cousin was missing (oh, Chad's not reading this is he!)Continue to have a great adventure!
