Hiking is sort of the "duh" form of entertainment, but once you get out there, there's nothing "duh" about it. A bunch of us (not me) went trekking on the South Kaibab Trail one morning. They brought back pictures. How nice of them! Aunt Camy and I had a wonderful time going out for breakfast, and then hitting the gift shops. Our feet felt a lot better at the end of the day too!
It was hot, so eating ice cream was a popular past time...
... so was playing Mary Poppins under an umbrella...
...or seeking shade under a favorite tree...
Heck... even dirty feet can become Art if you look at them right. Kelsey graciously and tickle-ishly allowed me to trace the heart I saw on the bottom of her sweet little tootsies.
Evening entertainment might be a goofy game of Twilight Hacky Sack...
... or some time with the pool sharks at the bar in the lodge...
Of course eating is always a big thing with my family.
But we don't overlook important cultural activities... like Family Fashion Shows... this is Steve wearing my very cute shoes. Told you he's funny. I think the hotel called Security at about this point...
..but not before the Girls had a chance to cool off in the wind tunnel... OK - I did it too, but since I was the Papparazzi, there's no proof! But hey... even Marilyn Monroe appreciated the wonderfulness of a little breeze under a skirt!
Almost done... but I want to show you what Steve and the Girls did with one of my Beadist Stickers. It's on the stairs leading up to the lodge from the train tracks. I think we might start a new web page using this as a jumping off point. You know - something like, "Where's Your Sticker?" I'll keep you posted on that.
And here we are, at the end of the Great Miles Family Grand Canyon Adventure. Rick and I love the place beyond reason. We're going back in July, to the North Rim this time, to spend my 50th birthday there. Until then... back to Taos!
