Near Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon, we went to this National Monument with only a couple of hours to spend, and could have spent all day! Who knew? If I have to put all the NM on the list too, I’ll NEVER make it! 1 week ago

November visit to the Grand Canyon was cold! I hiked each day for 3 days and never took my long underwear off! But absolutely beautiful. It’s my new favorite place—only NP I’ve seen so far that could be as fascinating as Yosemite, which is limitless in it’s fascination. 1 week ago

Yea!! We’re going to the Grand Canyon next week. It’s been many years since I’ve been there, and I know I’ll be awed as soon as I step up to the rim. 3 months ago

Have been to quite a few in the past year or so. But my goal is also to write about them and put together a scrapbook of sorts. Neither of which is really happening. Although I guess it is. Have written a blog about Assateague, now just need to edit and then pull photos….
It’s a process. Going to make a goal to do at least part of one stor each week:
1. First draft—handwrite on bus (until I get computer!!)
2. First draft—type
3. Revise first draft, tag
4. Pick a few photos, post blog, update blog page.
I guess there are 5 parts, because then I need to print out a nice copy with photos & put in my National Park Passport.
ok this is on!!! Going to finish all the parks I’ve visited by the end of the year!!! 8 months ago

Got to Zion and Bryce Canyon NPs this last week. Though I’ve been there before, it’s been years. So beautiful!! This is by the Virgin River close to the entrance to the Narrows—which were closed due to high water. 9 months ago
