Fall ....in love

Today after our busy Sunday we decided to go for a drive to Cottonwood Canyon . The fall colors were spectacular and as always it was extra special having the girls join us taking time from their busy days.We went up to Silver Lake remembering when all the kids were little and they used to love for us to take them there for walks. The air was refreshing, almost perfect for long sleeves, a few people fishing, just very peaceful. How i love days like today...picture perfect days...

Route 66

Our Hotel in Flagstaff Arizona was in Route 66



Navajo Bridge-Arizona

In our way back to Utah we encountered this bridge that crosses the Colorado River's Marble Canyon. The bridge carries northbound travelers to southern Utah and to the otherwise inaccessible portions of Arizona north of the Colorado River, such as the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park.





























Grand Canyon majestic beauty...

A Road Trip through Las Vegas, Hoover Dam, a night at Flagstaff to end at this majestic place..Grand Canyon was absolutely breathtaking..There is no better way to impress a European tourist than showing off this amazing work of nature.

With my Nikkon i captured these boys pretending to jump off the canyon.


Cristine captured this amazing shot, as always she is fascinated with trees.

























A fun memory that we will cherish forever.


































Quilting shops and Gardner Village fun.

The Quilt Shop was quite the experience for the girls
They loved looking at everything crafty, quite amazing for these college girls that had done none of this..truly ever. i just took pictures and found the experience priceless.
