Our first view of the Grand Canyon was a white wall of clouds; the weather had finally turned on us and became rainy and unaccommodating. Between the weather and what is likely strep throat, we abandoned our plans of hiking in to the canyon and, instead, drove around until the clouds cleared and some decent views emerged. The canyon is so big that it honestly does not look real when you see it in person - more like a scaled diorama or really good mural.
There is a bright side to our unexpected change in plans, as it allowed us enough time to stop by the Petrified Forest on our way to Texas.
Lester was finally able to see petrified trees and overcome his disappointment from Yellowstone.
