GRAND FALLS!

YESTERDAY WE TOOK A TRIP TO GRAND FALLS ON THE INDIAN RESERVATION. IT IS ABOUT 40 MIN. OUT SIDE OF TOWN. NOW, IT IS NOT THE MOST REFRESHING WATER FALL BUT IT IS QUITE THE SIGHT AND GREAT FAMILY FUN!

---THE LAST TIME I WAS HERE WAS 7 YEARS AGO. I CAME WITH TWO DEAR FRIENDS. DIANA LEE AND ALEXIS DOWNS (TUNNEL). WE CAME FOR A SCIENCE CLASS PROJECT. WE DECIDED TO COME IN MAY WHEN ALL THE SNOW HAD MELTED AND ALREADY PASSED. SO... THERE WAS NO WATER FALL. JUST A CANYON. WE WALKED ALL AROUND THE CLIFFS AND ROCKS AND NOTICED THERE WERE SMALL POOLS OF WATER. IT WAS ABOUT 100 DEGREES THAT DAY AND WE WERE GETTING HOT. THERE WAS NO ONE IN SIGHT SO WE GOT DOWN TO OUR "SKIPPIE'S" AND JUMPED INTO THESE SMALL POOLS. WE WANTED TO SEE HOW DEEP THEY WERE. MOST POOLS WE COULD BARELY SQUEEZE OUR BODIES INTO BUT THE CRAZY THING WAS, WE COULD NOT REACH THE BOTTOM. WE HAD SO MUCH FUN, THREE GIRLS RUNNING FREE ALL OVER THE ROCKS TILL I LOOKED UP AND SAW A NATIVE AMERICAN BOY PEEKING AT US FROM BEHIND A LARGE ROCK 10 YARDS AWAY. I SCREAMED!!! AND ALL US GIRLS STARTED RUNNING FOR COVER. THE BOY RAN AWAY JUST AS FAST BACK TO THE TP'S THAT WERE IN THE FAR DISTANCE. TOO FUNNY.... I AM SURE OUT ON THE RES. THERE IS NOT MUCH ACTION SO THE BOY HAD A GREAT STORY TO TELL HIS FRIENDS. ANY WAY... IT WAS NICE TO ACTUALLY SEE THE FALLS IN ACTION---

TALIA AND MOM NOT EXACTLY READY FOR THE CAMERA BUT ANY PICTURE WITH TAY IN IT IS A GREAT PICTURE!

IT IS CRAZY HOW CLOSE YOU CAN GET TO THE EDGE. I PERSONALLY AM A LITTLE FRIGHTENED BY HEIGHTS BUT TALIA AND DAD HAVE NO PROBLEMS IN THAT AREA...

AAHHH... FAMILY PHOTO TIME. BRUZER OBVIOUSLY DID NOT GET THE MEMO.

GRAND FALLS, AZ. IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN IT GO CHECK IT OUT. IT ONLY TAKES HALF A DAY.
