Grand Canyon Day 2

We are setting at the campground,  and the birds are flying all around us.  We have western bluebirds, chickadee, tufted titmouse, and many ravens cleaning up the campsites after people leave.  Yesterday we walked the canyon rim from noon to 6PM and covered about 7 miles.  The views are terrific.  Took sunset pics at Hermits rest, then took the shuttle back to campground.   We are leaving today, not sure where to.

Grand Canyon Day 1

Arrived at Grand Canyon yesterday about noon.  Walked the rim trail for 2 miles to Grand Canyon village. Took lots of pictures and ate dinner at the Bright Angel lodge.  Took the free shuttle bus back to campground.  The days are warm, almost 70, and the nights cold. We have slow internet and no electric, so this post will be short.  Here is one picture.  We will be here at least one more day.

Williams, AZ

Left Las Vegas and heading for Grand Canyon.  Had many traffic delays past Hoover Dam.   We finally made it to Williams, AZ and  staying at the Canyon Gateway RV park.  Here are a few pics.
