Grand Canyon Vacation

We enjoyed Memorial Day weekend at the Grand Canyon South Rim with a rented trailer. Becky's family joined us there on Friday night. We had great food. We were packed in like sardines in the trailer but enjoyed each others company. It drizzled some of the time and clouds in the canyon did not move out until the afternoon. The children had fun playing tag in a rock lined trail and adding to it. Elk were browsing on trees in the trailer park. We visited several of the beautiful south rim viewing areas. We got to visit a LDS Branch in the park on Sunday.

Thursday night we were locked out of the trailer upon our late night arrival in the rain, so we slept in the suburban. We were not provided with a key for the second door lock. The next morning we were advised to go in through a window so that we could continue our vacation as planned.

The picture of the blooming evergreen bush has round green buds which do not open for plants I have seen in residential areas in California, but they do blossom into flowers at the South Rim.
