Grand Canyon #2

 



A couple more shots of the Canyon. I probably should have walked back down there when the sun started going down. The evening light and shadows would have made for some lovely shots. These were taken on the Rim Trail as we approached the Kolb Brothers Studio. The studio was built right on the rim of the Canyon. I bought a book about them and their work. Those boys were something.


Meanwhile back at the ranch, Surly located a set of pipes for the Sportster that look like those in the photo. Those would be just the ticket. They would look like they were made for the bike, because they were, and be much quieter than the drag pipes.

I didn't do much on Sunday - unpacked the suitcase, did a little laundry, and then went to the gym. After spending 36 hours Flagstaff to Chicago and then a few more on the second leg, I figured it would be a good idea to exercise something besides my fanny. 


Did a little catch-upon the computer yesterday - emails and a survey from the brain research group I'm in. Swapped out the mower blades and proceeded to get the mower stuck on the first pass along the edge of the corn field. Between the rain yesterday and the apples on the ground I spun the rear wheels and it sunk to the depth of the mower deck right now. I had to get old Allis out and pull the mower free. However, if you look closely at the above photo, you'll see a couple of apples still hanging on the branches and apple blossoms like it's spring. Crazy stuff happening these days.
