This place is famous for photographers from around the world.
Some guy was here from National Geographic.
They were looking at me because all I had was a cell phone camera!
My charger was left behind in California.
Not bad pics, considering they are just point and shoot.
The beauty of the canyon is indescribable anyway; 
No photo from any camera comes close to the experiencing the real thing.
Someone was playing a Native American flute in the background.
It was a real treat!

Monster w/protein
Hamburger no bun
Cashews and peanut mix, Atkins bar.
A whole bunch of Trident gum.
(That can't be good!)

Very emotional day driving today.
Too much caffeine, not enough exercise.
Overstimulated - no "quiet time"
Yet oddly, not enough distractions!
Just a melancholy mix, I guess.

Wish you were here!

  6. Hey Anne, Sorry about the camera charger-- I usually leave my cell phone charger behind, so I know how you feel.

    My niece has been with me since Sunday so I'm just catching up on your vacation! LOVE the pics, even on your phone they are awesome. It looks like you're having a grand time even when you're a bit melancholy.

    I hope the rest of the day is fun and the drive tomorrow is easy on you. Are you getting close to home???

    Safe travels my friend!

  14. Excellent photos from a cellphone. My phone takes much crappier photos.

    What a beautiful place. Very ... ethereal, a reminder of how great is Nature and how small we are. I love those places. :) For some reason, they fill me with peace.
