I LOVE this line, "we all need to step outside of our everyday strife to take in the beauty of this earth and to remember that we are not on this journey alone."

On our second trip, the horseshoe observation deck was up near the south end of the canyon. I remember thinking how minuscule it looked in comparison to the grandeur of the canyon itself.

Sure, we have more photographs and technology allows us to share it with more people, but truly accessing it there--being present---traveling down into it--you can't bring much more today than you could hundreds (thousands) of years ago. I kind of feel that timeless majesty in your post...humbling.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16100635437209384762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143907991696731390.post-33598892375317930372015-03-05T06:06:08.400-05:002015-03-05T06:06:08.400-05:00Wow .. what an adventure!
