Elusive

For some reason, this lizard at Walnut Canyon was unimpressed by my invitations to come out and pose for better pictures.

Past

In addition to gorgeous nature, Walnut Canyon also had a number of Anasazi ruins built into the cliffs.

Sunset Crater

On our last day in Flagstaff, we went for a hike at Sunset Crater. I was not expecting a post-volcanic wasteland to be so beautiful.

Clouds

The clouds at Walnut Canyon were unusually stupendous.

Detail

Grand

As advertised, the Grand Canyon is, in fact, pretty grand.

Priorities

Evelyn thinks that natural splendor is all very well, but a puddle to splash in is where the real entertainment is at.

Walnut Canyon

On Thursday, we went for a hike at Walnut Canyon. It was beautiful, but on the way back up, Rebecca and I had to stop for a lot of "picture breaks" that of course had nothing to do with the fact that we desperately needed to stop and breathe for a bit.
