the canyon

This is about as good as it gets.  Cool canyon air, throwing rocks in the river, tinfoil dinners, and a few games of UNO.   An evening in the canyon is a must when we stay with Grammaline.

i don't know where i was when these moments happened.  i might have been making pasta salad and baked beans for dinner on the 4th.  maybe i was doing yoga in the game room with the girls, or visiting  (and laughing) with family i don't see very often.  i could have been sharing makeup secrets with shauna ( a personal highlight) or taking my turn on facebook scrabble.  i'm not sure where i was, but I know I wasn't there with my camera.  i'm thrilled that danny was.
