Busy couple of days.


This was our second stop, at the "glass bridge skyway", pictured to the left in this picture. What a rip-off! You aren't allowed out on it with either a camera, or a cell phone,(you must lock them in a locker)and they charge over $30.00 per person to walk out on it. They will take a picture of you on the bridge, and sell it to you for $25.00 more. I didn't bite.


Looking down from the edge makes you a little dizzy.


Another view over the edge.


If you click on this image, it will enlarge, and you will see where I drew white lines on it. There are rock formations that look like a sleeping dog, on the top of the butte, and an eagle with it's wings spread, between the peaks, below and to the right of the sleeping dog.

We just spent the last 2 days at the other house, packing up and sorting out stuff to be moved. I discovered that the carpet in the family room is damp-to-wet under the cutting mat and the chair mat. I have a large, plastic cutting mat for fabric that is in the middle of the floor, with fabric and other stuff to be packed on it, and a chair mat, for a rolling chair, in front of my sewing center. When I moved them today, I discovered that the roof had leaked, and the carpet is wet. I sprayed it with a disinfectant spray, to kill any mold, and had a fan blowing on it most of the day. I did get the sewing stuff mostly packed up and shifted to the storage container on the driveway, along with the 8 ft tall sewing center built by my husband Mike. We also set out out 2 old sofas to be freecycled, and a pair of large speakers. The speakers were gone in less than an hour, but the sofas were still there when we came back to the farm this evening. I've got someone picking them up tomorrow.

Mike spent a good part of today driving back and forth to Drs. He needed a physical for work, so went first thing this morning. That Dr said, due to his being 55, that he needed a stress test EKG, but they couldn't do it there. He came home, called our regular Dr, made an appointment for 3:00, and helped move and pack for a couple of hours, then he was off to see this Dr, who ordered his stress test for Monday.

I'll post some more of my pictures from the Grand Canyon now.
