Day 1: As some of you are aware, Hope invited me on a cross country road trip. I of course accepted. We left Nat Soo Pah on Sunday. We traveled down the 93, headed for the Grand Canyon. It was hhhhmmm long :)
We saw miles and miles of the above two pictures. We sang songs, talked, laughed
Slept
Indulged Mom with smiles
Yay Vegas is close, that means the Grand Canyon is closer.
It's amazing how beautiful water is when everything is dry and hot. Lake Mead just sparkled.
We were going to drive right past the Hoover Dam. I have never been there before so Hope drove us over too it, I think the original plan was to just drive over it, turn around and just come back, but we couldn't see very well and so Hope pulled over and we walked around taking pictures like crazy tourists. It was very fascinating to see. It was around 7 or so at night and 103, so we didn't stay long. We still had 5 more hours to go.
We quickly got back in the car, cranked up the AC and headed toward the Grand Canyon. Around 11:30 we pulled into the park and found our Hotel. We stayed at the Yavapai lodge. By the time we got all settled in we were exhausted. It sure felt good to get to bed. Hopefully we don't do to many days like that or I might not make it!
