We arrived and set up camp Friday afternoon. We have a fab spot, with the perfect amount of trees. What is great is that we can keep everything in the truck because the canyon has a free shuttle system that will take us where we want to go. I have now made Spam, pancakes, corn, Top Ramen, hot dogs, and smores with fire. Daryn helped set up the tent, and Allyn nearly passed out blowing up the air mattresses. But, we are here and enjoying roughing it for a while.
Oh, and this morning, as I sit at the Grand Canyon National Headquarters, using their WiFi and blogging, I must tell you about a funny thing. This morning, about 4am, I heard growling! I stayed still in my sleeping bag, decided whether or not to go outside and use my pepper spray. After I listed for a while more, I realized it was the guy in the tent in the next campground snoring! Geeeeeeezzzz!
Camping!

I can not tell you how much I love camping…I LOVE IT ! It is so wonderful that you all can do this trip together. I am sure it will never be forgotten. I would remember my whole life. I wish we had done this with Brenda when she was little. We were in the wrong professions to get the time off like this…way to go Brenda, way to go! —Mom Nerd
