Easter break and craving for a dose of stressbuster, Genny, Gene and Ine took off for their much needed R & R and explored Arizona and the Grand Canyon. They were dwarfed by the enormous beauty of the scenery behind them. I can't comment on it much since I've never seen the place, but have heard how grand it is and it's in my bucket list. Gene was in awe talking to me about their trip and below is an excerpt from Genny's blog. "Just a big hole", was her friend's description of this natural wonder! I think that comment is a bit shallow.A big hole, indeed (and I say that with outright indignation). I bet she has not seen a hole that's 277 miles long and about 18 miles wide. I'm not going to go on a litany about my experience in GC, one of the more impressive natural walking wonders of the world. I think pictures have a better way to giving importance to what I've seen and what I have learned from my trip. As the old adage says, 'A picture is worth a gazillion words...' Although, and I have told my friends and family this, pictures of the Grand Canyon does not even do justice to its glory and majesty compared to seeing it, hiking it, and staring down at its edges, I look at my pictures and still think how truly blessed I am to have the opportunity to at least try to capture and behold what true beauty is.
Truly, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
