Looking south down the Colorado River ; pretty muddy looking due to recent rains |

The top rated hike in the park |
It starts off easy enough; it is a 3 mile round trip to the falls |

Saw thousands of these today |
This guy is kind of far east |
Our Grandson loves these "Wizards" |
Rain brought out the wild lilies |
Our daughter said all she has ever seen is the yellow/orange blossoms of the prickly pear; here is one for you Jennifer |
Do you see the insect? |
Love trying to catch butterflies... please click the picture to enlarge it because this butterfly is beautiful! |
