Tapper Trails @ Grand Canyon

Hello dear friends and family.
Today we visited the Grand Canyon. The temp range was 26 degrees F to 56 degrees F....in the beautiful sun. We haven't seen the full sun shining for days and days! It was wonderful.
It's hard to believe we're in Arizona with these temperatures. It's supposed to be 85 degrees F in Phoenix. We may be there next week?? We'll probably spend this weekend in Sedona, Arizona.
Once again..I think a picture is worth a thousand words.
Tomorrow, Kim and I plan to return to the Canyon and hike halfway down on the Bright Angel Trail. If we don't make it back up ....just remember, we're among the angels!! Ha!!
Love and Hugs to you all!
.....Kim and Linda

Jenn this one is for you...you can block out "Night club" and print it out for your Scooter Parking
The Circ de Soleil concert was amazing. Action packed....colourful...people falling out of the sky....climbing ropes....dancing...jumping on trampolines....skate boarding.. rollerskating, running on stilts...on tricycles and unicycles .I don't think I have ever seen anything with so much colour....amazing costumes......skilful acrobatics and dance ..and so much action....all going on at once. At the end there were red streamers falling out of the sky.....all performed to the Beatles Tunes!!!! I don't think my sensory "apparatuses" have ever been so stimulated!!!! Ha!! How will we ever adjust to 'action-packed' North Gower?? We are hoping to get tickets to see Garth Brooks tonight at the Wynn Hotel.
We'll be leaving here on Monday am....heading toward Flagstaff Arizona and the Grand Canyon.
We're hoping for some nice weather for this weekend just to relax around the pool and this RV resort. This am it is 66 degrees.....and cloudy AGAIN!!!
Hope all is well with all of you. We miss you.

Tapper Trails @ Hoover Dam

Hello dear Family:

Today we drove to Boulder City...about 20 miles from Vegas to tour the Hoover Dam. We went underground into the tunnels where they re-routed the water from the Colorado River to Make Lake Mead and build the Dam!! Amazing!!!! The Lake Mead water level has never been so low as today. The guide suggested we drink more beer and liquor while we are here and less water!! Ha!!

It is cool today and it started raining as soon as we left the DAM!! We stayed in the trailer tonight as we're having thunder showers.....again!

All is well...tomorrow night we hope to see the Beatles Production "Love" at the Mirage Hotel ....and maybe Garth Brooks live on Fri. or Sat.

Stay well..................we miss you all..................Love Kim and Linda

Hello dear friends and family. Today we visited the Mormon Temple Square in Salt Lake City. It took 40 yrs. to build and was completed in 1893!! Amazing structure!!

The temp. was in the low 70's today....nice for walking around touring!

Tomorrow we are leaving for Las Vegas....staying in a nice RV resort with 2 pools, sauna, exercise room...minigolf...and a little patch of grass!! Most of the parks are all asphalt or Gravel !!!
