The last time I was at the grand canyon I was in the 6th grade. I remember it being mounumentally huge and awe-inspiring. It was a particularly special trip for me because it was just me and my dad (anyone else with siblings will understand how great those moments are). This time, John and I wanted an atypical experience of our state’s claim to fame. So, we decided to visit in January; during a snow storm.

The first day when we arrived AZ gave us a typical clear blue sky. At least there was snow on the ground…

John decided to film the sunset over the canyon.

Luckily, the second day brought on the storm! It was really amazing to see the canyon this way.

Okay, give me a break for including this one. I’m just so proud of my jurry-rig here; I don’t have a tripod, so I’ve got the camera tied into a nearby tree via the strap. =D
