Great! Have fun, Carla. :thumbsup:
Thanks, Lou. We are hoping to get there-fingers crossed!
I was channel surfing last night and stopped on the National Geographic channel because they were doing a special on the Grand Canyon Skywalk. I immediately thought of Lou and the Road Trip. After we left Vegas we found a road supposedly leading to the Skywalk so we decided to go on a little detour. We ended up in a place I like to refer to as "The Hills Have Eyes." It was, in a word, CREEPY. The sun was starting to go down and we were on a dirt road surrounded by cacti with no cell service not knowing exactly where we were. After I got in the driver's seat and turned us back around to where we came from (ahem, civilization) we stopped and asked someone how far away the Skywalk was and we found out that when we turned around we were only about 2 miles away.
I don't know how many of you have seen the movie The Hills Have Eyes but it was a very creepy movie and where we were totally reminded me of that movie. In this pic somewhere behind those mountains (with eyes) is the Grand Canyon Skywalk.

Is that a picture you took Peek?
Aw, gotta love the memories! Although, you have watched waaay too many horror movies, Jess. ;)
I'm betting that is one of Jess's shots. A couple more from my stash:

I watched Classic Albums last night, which was focused on Fleetwood Mac's Rumours. Of course, I was reminded of Nancy.
I also thought of Willie because there was a Led Zeppelin documentary on the Bio channel yesterday.
I was in the grocery store the other day, and a blonde-headed lady with a big smile on her face came around the corner of the bakery with a tray of freshly baked pies. I immediately thought of ticky. :thumbsup:
BTW - gorgeous pics Lou and Jess.
Yeah, it is. Before I got into the driver's seat I snapped that pic very quickly and then got us the heck outta there.
Well, okay, yeah maybe I have. BUT you gotta admit that it was a bit creepy being out in the middle of nowhere.
Thanks, Kay. Now that it's been a few months I can actually kinda enjoy those pics and not remember them as The Hills Have Eyes but at the time I was totally creeped out.
