We arrived at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park this afternoon. As we were pulling into our campground, there were 2 mule deer just grazing in the park. We got set up and went to 3 different points to view the canyon. The 3rd one was the Desert View Point and it was 25 miles from the campground. This park is HUGE...over 1.2 million acres! We were at Desert View for the sunset tonight. On the drive there we saw a huge elk, but he was moving further back in the woods and I didn't get a real good picture of him. We'll have all day tomorrow to visit the other viewing points. Check another one off of my "Bucket List". That's THREE this week! I need to slow down on completing the list! :-)
