Friday 27th March..another cool morning..

When I camped last night it was dark so I was happy to be in such nice surroundings.IMG_5472

The forest is with the Grand Canyon boundaries.IMG_5473

I should explain that yesterday I was on the south rim on the canyon, the north rim is 10 miles across the canyon as the crow flies but takes 5 hours to drive around.  So on the south rim I hiked the west part of the trail this morning as I was leaving I stopped at view points on the the east side of the south rim.IMG_5474

When I pulled up into the parking lot here I just had to park next to Ramona’s sister this is the first RV I have seen in nearly three years the same as mine, of course I think Ramona is better looking!!IMG_5508

So I leave this remarkable part of the world and the memories will be with me always.
