On To The Grand Canyon

May 13 continued - The second stop was The Grand Canyon! Neither of us had been there. Truly an impressive, majestic, and spiritual experience. We timed it so we would be able to get sunset pictures and there are just no words... Look at the pictures.




 I must say it was amazing, my height issues had me holding onto the railing a lot, but I still loved it. It is beautiful and at sunset was even more amazing.

Even with his rollator, Jonathan had some issues walking on rocks because the unevenness is hard with his balance issues and the rocks hurt his feet even more than usual because of his neuropathy. We got as close as he could and we would sit and gaze upon the magic of nature.






The formation below is what people call "The Duck". 





May 14 - We stayed the night at a travel center in Arizona along with a whole bunch of trucks. After getting supplies at Walmart (a nearly everyday occurrence lol) and propane at Tractor Supply (much cheaper than the travel centers and just as easy to pull up to the fill station). We also visited the "Desert Oasis" gas station right off the highway in the California desert because we were running low. This was the one day Jonathan didn't plan the gas stop and boy did they get us! It was $8.55 a gallon for regular unleaded, I nearly fell over, lol. We finally arrived at the Mountain Valley RV Park in the Mojave desert very late. 


Time to head to the Big Trees! Click here to continue our adventure.
