Why Does My Dog Look Like a Zombie?

Something pretty freaky happened when I took this picture!
 It revealed Toby as an actual pajama wearing Zombie!

No special effects!

How Cute Are These Guys????

My Grandkids...cutest kids ever!
Went to the park to play and throw a frisbee around.

Grand Canyon Arizona

Took an awesome side trip to Grand Canyon while in Arizona with Janna & Bobby. First time for all of us, well not exactly but I was about 8 years old so I don't remember much.

Kinda takes your breath away...

Just unbelievable sights all the way.

The Colorado River!

Grand Canyon Babes!

At the Edge...

The distances were so deceptive. In this picture the things we were seeing were from 9 to 40 miles away but looked like they were right beside each other!

Looks scary but it is a camera tilt trick!

I think we are looking at the "Painted Desert" here becaus the map it said it was in this area.

More Painted Desert?

So Bobby had us pose on this tree then took Janna over to the other side to show her something...

Yep, he saw this guy on the sidewalk behind us!

This is called The Watchtower designed by a female architect in the 30's to supposedly get the best view of the Grand Canyon. It was awesome but not for the views.

The Watchtower

Actual Indian art murals. I forget which type (of Indian) but they were phenomenal

Last stop Sedona AZ!

Ironman!

2,500 men and women getting ready for a 2 mile swim!

This was about 6 am in November so I imagine that water was pretty chilly!

Bikes and Swimmers

Jump in!

Waiting for the start,,,

Bobby says he was near that middle Kayak to start.

A happy looking Man!

He smiled through the whole 13 hours!

Take that Most Photogenic Guy!

Making the Turn!

Still Smiling! Only 25 miles to go!

Smiling AND looking cool!

Ready to be done but at this point I think he still had another 12 or so miles to go...

Love the signs!

Bobby Cooper YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!

Stoked!

Our first view of Grand Canyon
