I own no land, instead I have wheelestate. I’ve been a full time RVer since 1997. Working summers as a Park Ranger takes me to many beautiful places and playing during the winter takes me to many more. This blog is simply the story of my life's adventures.

MWT - South Rim Grand Canyon training Day 1
When the staff left the North Rim on April 30th the snow still covered the forest and meadows but soon we returned to warmth... (read more here)
Oh...wow...man....I need so much to see that area again. It gets into your soul, the Grand Canyon and all the surrounding areas. We drove past the Painted Desert but didn't have time to stop, dang it. Oh...........wow...............
Gorgeous shots - makes me wish I was there! Was the S Rim cold? We're due for another storm here in CO, but (hopefully) we'll miss it by leaving early tomorrow AM! CA or Bust!
Great photographs. I remember Lee's Ferry from when I was a kid before the dam closed its gates. The San Francisco peaks always make me nostalgic from when I was a kid and when we would go to Flagstaff to visit friends.
Oh what I would give to have a day of training in such an environment. Your country and captures of it are simply stunning. Have fun and stay warm! Smiles
Gaelyn;) this is absolutely STUNNING. What scenery and grandeur. I love the painted desert. And the snow is back again. Did you see Mike this weekend? Blessings. Jo
Gorgeous shots as always, Gaelyn! Surely do bring back lots of happy memories! Hope the snow stops soon! You do have lots of beautiful skies, too, though!! Have a great week!
For some reason that "pile" of coloured sand seems familiar to me... So does that view of the peaks! BTW, Thank you for the note! It took me back to the "coodie catcher"...
These are wonderful and I especially LOVE the view of that beautiful rock in the Painted Desert! Wow! Oh, Wow! I want to spend more time in that area with my camera!
You, too, enjoyed some beautiful clear skies. These shots are amazing. When I have visited there has always been a haze to scatter the light and wash out the colors. I bet there were a lot of days like this before we started to pollute the air. Now I'm going to scroll up and savor these again.

It is definitely time for the snow to stop! There must be some kind of Native American dance that could be done.....
