    Lake Mead and the Grand Canyon

    Just spent a few days in Arizona with Shane's family--so unutterably huge and barren (Arizona, that is; not Shane's family)  ;)  I didn't even know yucca could get tree-size. 

    Highlights:

    1) I can't wakeboard.  Just flopped right in on several tries.  Maybe I'll try agan next year...

    2)  While I find innertubing to be lots of fun, it also scares me to death--I screamed at least as much as the six-year-old that was on there with a couple of times.  And...  getting bumped by an innertube and the subsequent flying out was a bit ...  Well, I had a lot of fun despite all the indications otherwise while I was on.  ;)

    3)  The Skywalk (a glass bridge protruding out of the top of the Grand Canyon) is ridiculous.  Great view if you are certain you're not gonna go straight through the floor.  Amazing what a difference the little white area makes under the glass.  *sigh*  But, obviously (since I am writing this) I didn't die either from falling or fright.  And hopefully sometime soon I'll have a picture up from the deathwalk.  (you could google it in the meantime)

    4)  On the last day at the lake, it was *only* 121 degrees in the shade...  Why would someone stay in the desert for more than a few days at a time???

  • just so you all know

    Shane is my favorite person.  My favorite state is Virginia.  Shane is not a geographical location and Virginia is not a person.  Methinks I have received more comments from you three on that one little detail than anything I've ever written.

About Me

  • Currently... a lamp, a pile of pillows, my stuffed bunny that I've had since I was four... that sort of stuff.

Pulse

  • saw a cold beach again over break... *is no longer shocked that the beach can be a freezing cold place*
  • Monday again.  Back to work after a nice, freezing cold weekend at the beach.  The ocean is ... *sigh*... words fail.
  • *sigh*  It's the end of the month again.  :(  That's the time I realize there's still a lot to be finished before the end.

    Chatboard... would that be like a cross between a chat and a bulletin board?
