Once we got the kids their ranger booklets we went to a ranger program where we listened to the 'sounds of the grand canyon' and the rock-n-roll ranger led us in a few songs. We thought of Uncle Brad and how fun it would have been to have them here to lead us in some tunes.
The highlight of our stay was our bike ride along the south rim. We even had a couple of unexpected tour guides......
Suffice it to say, even with the overcast and hazy weather the beauty of the canyon was spectacular. As you can see by all the pictures it was hard to leave many out.

| This will be a rare amd classic picture for the family album! Harper somehow ended up on Jack's side and when they woke up and saw me at the dining table they were both confused. They thought they were cuddling up next to mom :) |

| You can't see the Colorado here but you can see where it cut through the canyon starting on the lower left and winding up towards the upper right side of the pic. |
