AzPicLady Loc: Behind the camera!
 
I love the Grand Canyon. I've been to the bottom. I've hiked its trails and its rims. I've seen it in sunshine and in rain, in summer and in winter. I particularly like the North Rim. Being smaller, it's a much more intimate view, and there aren't the vast crowds. So, I'm presenting a few of my favorite views of this wonderful place in hopes you enjoy them also. As always, your comments are coveted.

This is a wonderful set. The pandemic shot my plans to smoke. I planned to go to Las Vegas for my wife to enjoy. (I’m not big on gambling.) Then a quick jump over to the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon. I really was looking forward to Sunrise’s and sunsets over the Canyon rims.

Thanks for the beautiful set!

Happy Shooting!

Actually, I found it not a bad time to be there. There just weren't many people, and that suits me fine. The restaurant was closed, but the cafe was serving drinks and food. You just had to eat outside and the line was pretty long. The road up to Point Imperial is closed and the campground is closed, but the camp store is open. A lady I spoke with said Arches was crammed with people but that Bryce was slow. I wondered about Zion that perhaps it might be less populated than has been normal the last few years.

Big family(s) reunion, @ 35 years ago. Lotsa folk. I convinced the "leader" to go North.
We went to Moab. The traffic light in the center was called "The Light" back then.
In WW2 the menfolk went to war, or to factories, and the women ran the town. They found so much corruption they wouldn't let the men run things after they got back.
There was an underground speakeasy dug into a cave on a curve.
Could have bought a place then- there was a "surge", folk leaving, and prices way dropped.
10 years later they doubled. 15 years after that they added another "0"
Did the impromptu "Mormon" tour. Lotsa sheep, cattle and cheese in the day. Pretty ranches.
Women complained. No shopping! Us guys ... "What's thataways?" and off we'd go.
We say the "Gunsmoke" set- it was getting pretty bad then.
ALWAYS something to see in America.
