Thursday was Grand Canyon day! There was a 40% chance of precipitation so we gathered our bad weather stuff and headed out. We started out in sun and headed toward the clouds...then light hail (little balls bouncing on the road ahead of us)...then snow (light flakes aimed at the windshield). It was pretty neat.
The Grand Canyon is still spectacular. The sun would be shining and you could see far distances. Then the clouds rolled in and there was canyon and mist. Then light snow and you could see fellow tourists (mostly speaking foreign languages) heading for cover (the shops). Then sun again - all within minutes. Quite an experience.
The bottom picture is the view from our living room this morning. My only firm plans today are packing - we have to be out by 10:00 a.m. tomorrow and I do dislike rushing. It's been a very short week.
