On to the GRAND CANYON

Sunday. We got up early this morning so that we can go back through Zion before it gets crowded. We decided not to do the shuttle. We will have to come back when it is not so crowded. After enjoying the scenery in Zion NP again, we headed to the Grand Canyon National Park on the north rim via hwy 89.  We just at Lake Jacob.  This is a really cool place! They have cabins and a campground and a cute little shop and restaurant. We ate at the restaurant and had a very good meal. We stopped at the national forest visitor center and the young man told us that the NP campground was probably full, but we can camp anywhere on National forest grounds for free. He directed us to a beautiful spot!  In fact this is my favorite spot of the entire trip…right on the edge of the Canyon!  After setting up camp, we road the bikes a couple of miles down the dirt road.  We cooked scrambled eggs for dinner - and yes, we ate a lot of eggs this trip J.  We sat in our chairs and enjoyed the view until it was dark and then took another warm shower (yay for hillbilly ingenuity).  It is very cool and supposed to get down into the 30’s tonight, but it is warm and cozy in our little camper!
