Today was another earlier morning. We woke up before the sun again...but this time it was to watch the sunrise at the Grand Canyon!
Can you tell I was excited!?
It was still dark and freezing when we arrived at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon but the view even then still took our breath away.
With each passing minute as the sun rose, the view just became more beautiful!
Every time we thought we had taken as many photos as we could, the sun would appear or we would find a new angle.
It was amazing!
We did our best to stop and really dwell in the wonder of what we were constantly photographing. So much magnitude and beauty, yet nothing compared to it's creator.
At one point we were able to take a small hike down in to the valley of the canyon, enjoying it's character the whole way down.
The doorway to a new beginning!
Such beauty and magnitude.
A wonderful day with two wonderful people!
Around noon we had to keep driving East. So we took one last look and got in the car with the goal of making it to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Enjoying the painted hills and distant rainbows along the way.
And now as we sit in yet another hotel, in yet another state, all I can tell you is how I exhausted I am. No big thoughts or revelations. Just need for sleep and an alarm free wake up, anticipating tomorrow's big push! We plan to drive through the night into Thursday. Between the three of us we should be able to manage. Thankful and feeling your prayers. Until then!
