Adios Grand Canyon


We barely got to know you. We rolled out of Vegas at 5 AM after a hearty breakfast and some successful gambling and drove east past Hoover Dam and into the rising sun. 300 miles, approximately 5 hours, one security checkpoint (they don't want you to blow up the dam, apparently), a gas stop or two and some heroic driving by Issao got us to the Grand Canyon by 10 AM. A couple of hours checking out the colossal hole in the ground and and now we're back on our way to Albuquerque. No casualties yet. The road ahead is 800+ miles of flat on I-40 but leads to the promise of some very tasty ribs in Kansas City. Stay tuned.

Note: 1 casualty. We accidentally left Jonathan at the gas station and drove off without him. Epic fail. Might be time for the buddy system?

  1. What Bharat fails to mention is that it took a phone call to get anyone to notice I was gone. Well, two phone calls. Bharat didn't answer the first one.
