CONGRATULATIONS TO BECKY AND JIMMY

So here is my shout out to Becky and Jimmy, I wish you the best in everything that is to come.

Thanks for inviting me. Sorry, I didn't drink with you at the reception, I was otherwise occupied although I do not remember with what.

DA GRAND CANYON

So on this past Sat, we also went to the grand canyon, which for all intents and purposes, is a big hole in the ground, but quite an impressive hole it is. I picked out a couple of pictures that I liked that I thought would show some of its grandeur and have added them below. It was a nice day with enough clouds that I think make the pictures more interesting, but not too much that it was overcast.





So here is my friend, Ka, pondering about something... maybe its about why he didn't jump off the other cliff (see previous post about Page) or why his girlfriend Vickie kept grabbing my ass all weekend, but thats another story thats NSFW...



So there are a lot of signs along the roads leading into and out of the Grand Canyon warning about deer that might be around. We didn't see any, although I thought I saw a glimpse of antlers in the dark, but im pretty much blind so it would have been anything. What we did see was this guy or girl. He was just chillin, taking a stroll as stupid humans in cars stopped to stare at it, which didn't seem to interest it until we stopped. Since the car was in front of us was stopped we had to stop and I had just bought this shiny new camera so I figured I should take some pictures. So I snap away and saw I got a good one with its eyes... I am ABSOLUTELY sure that it was checking me out at this moment (don't laugh). It must have thought it could get away with it, but I caught it and must say I am flattered.

Page, AZ

So I went to Page, AZ this past Saturday. It is about 6 hrs from Tuscon, a couple of my high school friends were in Phoenix for the weekend so we took a day trip. Page, AZ is in Navajo Nation and its a beautiful part of the southwest. There are a few famous spots there, most notable Horsebend Bend and the Antelope Canyons.

Below is Horseshoe Bend, its the picture that I liked the most of the ones I took, but obviously we went at the wrong time as only half of it is lit. I do like the clouds in the sky, but next time I go I will know to go later in the day. My original plan was to go for sunrise, but we all know how plans to get up early goes...



This is my boy Ka checking out how far the drop is... We tried to get him to jump, but he was quite resistant, what a wuss.



Here we have a shot from the lower antelope canyon which is essentially a crack in the ground. Despite that, its a beautiful spot that definately needs to be checked out by everyone, and yes that includes you. My only complaint is that there were too many people, but I am sure thats what everyone else was thinking when they saw me. I definately will go back and also see the upper antelope canyons, which offer a different look.



In case you were wondering where the beautiful clouds from the first two pictures came from, here you go. I was able to snap this picture of their secret cloud maker while it was operating. Those cheaters!
