Grand Canyon Trip

I deserve a badge for two reasons: I hiked the Grand Canyon and I left Trenton with Grandma and Grandpa overnight without balling my eyes out! Landon and I went camping this past weekend at the Grand Canyon. I haven't been camping in about 10 years!! I had fun, though. Then the next day, we decided to go down Angel Bright Trail, which is 8 miles one way to Plateau Point. No, I did not hike 16 miles, but I did hike 6 and I thought I was going to die. We went down into the canyon and I was doing ok. I had a blister on one heel and I was a little tired. Then we turned around to go back UP 3 miles!! I told Landon mid way that I would rather go through labor again than finish the hike :-) I was so tired and we had to climb about 2000 feet in elevation over the 3 miles back to the top of the canyon. When we finally made it, my legs were BLUE because I had sweat so much, the dye from jeans had dyed my legs!! All Landon could say was, at least we got some really cool pictures. I put some below if you care to look . . . then you won't have to go through what I did to see these sights!

Wow! Great job...I'm so PROUD of you...I would've died. But, it does look beautiful and the pictures are worth it (easy for me to say!)
