Planning

Well, yesterday I finished getting the reservations for our summer trips. 3 nights in Zion NP and 2 days at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. I haven't been back to the North Rim for several years. I suppose the only thing changed was the company the runs the lodge. People always ask me why I like going back to the same spot for vacations. Nothing really changes with the rocks or the mountains or valleys. but actually I go for the scenery and to get a rest from the hustle and bustle of the city. I would actually be living in the Mountains of Arizona if I hadn't got married. Had it all planned out. But change happens. My oldest daughter was asked why she wanted to move to Argentina by concerned friends and family members. Like she was moving to an Indian reservation in the Amazon rain forest. I found Argentina similiar to here except they speak Spanish and drive like they were participating in a demolition derby. Very nice area and they have HBO. Anyhow people asked me why I wanted to move to the mountains of Arizona and away from civilization as they know it. My answer was to go to an area that is quiet and peaceful and I sometimes added to get away from people like you. Sometimes I'm not very diplomatic, but I got to a point that I don't care what people think of me. I'm try always to be nice to people but sometimes I realize animals are alot better to talk to (even the wild ones)
