It’s true that a picture can not adequately capture the grand-ness of the Grand Canyon; and yet, neither can words. The upside of using photos is that the subject matter is so stunning, it’s impossible to take a bad picture. With that justification, I’ve decided to share my family’s trip to the Grand Canyon via photo essay. And this way, I won’t have to bore you with vacation pics when you come to my house! 🙂
Hope you enjoy and that you and yours can also see America this summer. ❤ YDC
