North Rim-Grand Canyon-Aug 12

This is the motel that we were in for 2 nights. It is such a pretty setting. We really enjoyed all the scenery again today, all the clouds, white aspen trees, wildlife (squirrels, lizards, chipmunks, turkey, bison, deer) We are headed for Bryce Canyon tomorrow
Hey grand kids-- today we saw these bison grazing in the meadows at The Grand Canyon. We also saw turkeys, deer and yesterday we saw a wolf. We are getting very anxious to see all of you!!We are still using the mugs, binoculars and the readings and pics for each day.
Can you imagine a hubby that really doesn't care for heights is way up there?
We were asked if we want our picture taken together. We said sure!! We have also taken pictures for others.
We did some hiking today. This is the way part of the trail looked. It was a nice walk. Looking to the sides-it went way doowwnn. It was pretty warm, so we were glad we had our water bottles with us. We also had a picnic lunch overlooking the canyon before we left.
The scenery is as beautiful as south rim. The north rim is definately more laid back and not as busy.
We drove to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon this morning after catching up on things at home and with Rich and Sharon.
