In the desert

In the desert, so busy having fun that I cannot find time to blog.

Saturday, got up at 430am to get organized to go to the airport to fly to Phoenix.

Arrived 1030 local, then drove up to the Grand Canyon. Saw several pronghorn antelope along the road between Williams and the park.

Saw several mule deer along the road in the park.

Saw a couple of desert bighorn sheep along the cliff face below Mather Point.

Watched the sunset, very impressive.

Sunday, too tired to get up for the sunrise, spent most of the day hiking along the rim trails. Hiked a short distance down the trail at Hermit's Rest. Watched the sunset at Hopi Overlook/Hopi Point. Very impressive.

Drove out of the park after dark, saw several elk along the road and a lone coyote cross the road.

Monday, drove to Sedona. Hiked Little Horse Trail just outside Sedona. Awesome redrock scenery.
