This is the first overlook that you come to in the Canyon de Chelle


If you look real close you can see the cliff dwellings.....Just shows you how big this place is.


Channing and Cade looking for ants to step on... One of Cades favorite things to do....


Unfortunately this didn't say Nanny's name but we keept her in the car anyway!!!!!


Don't know who made this footprint but I do know I don't want to meet him or her.....


Another over look in the Canyon..


New state to check off the list........


This is the view above our restaurant for supper......


Cade and his favorite uncle "for the minute" Kegan playing after supper.


Sunset at our hotel "The Desert Rose" this is one cool looking place.....

Whewww!!! Busy day! Started in Sedona, AZ with a view of the whole city.


Next was Montezuma's Castle which was my favorite for the day (Kristen).


Happy Campers.


Meteor Crator
The largest piece of the meteorite that was found.


Site wasn't actually established as a meteor crater until the 1960's.


Winslow, AZ
Standin' on the corner in Winslow, AZ just like the Eagles. ("Eagles??? Who are the Eagles?" - Kristen)


Taken especially for Gramps ...


Petrified Forest
Channing asked "how is petrified wood made?" and Dad replied "you get a piece of wood and scare it to death."


Do you see a forest?


The Painted Desert.

This is the view when driving into Sedona



A creek flowing through the Canyon


Here's Kristen having a fabulous time listening to Cade sing his Paci song!!!


This is Cade thinking "How in the world did I get stuck with this crowd?"


But hitting the pool with Dad always brightens the day!!!

Speaks for it's self.....

Cabin/primitive housing/our home for two nights.

Good morning from the Grand Canyon!


It was so pretty outside we decided to take a hike down the Bright Angel Trail.


Everyone's happy except the guy in the stroller...


Channing barely made it back from the hike.


We also visited Hermits Rest.


Sunset.


Goodnight!

Williams, AZ, on Route 66


Nanny thought this lady was really jumping out the window ...




Paci, PAci, PACi, PACI, PACIIIIIIII!!!!! If we've heard it once, we've heard it a million times. And it's only day 4.


No, Cade, you cannot walk around by yourself. It's too dangerous ...


... there are man eating squirrels around these parts! No kiddin!


And now a couple of pictures of the Grand Canyon ... since that's what we're out here to see. It's amazing, pictures just don't do it justice.





And one more thing ... this guy makes $4.50 an hour holding up this sign.

Cade says hello from Las Vegas!





This is Red Rock Canyon. You can tell how enormous it is by looking at the people climbing up the rocks. None of our pictures show how big everything really is.


The Hoover Dam ... Channing said "this is the biggest damn dam I've ever seen!"
