A few weeks ago I went to Albuquerque to do a little bit of work. I was there for three days and then left so that I would be home when my parents came into town. I finished work and was on the road at 10:30 on a Wednesday night, Sept. 10 to be exact. I was about a hundred miles outside of Tucson around one in the morning when I saw this brown historical sign "Grand Canyon 190 miles". Over the next hour I weighed my options in my head. As much as I really wanted to go home, I could see the sunrise over the Grand Canyon. And that would be a story!!
So after dismantling a gas station power outlet to charge my phone, a run in with the police (unrelated), a stop at Denny's for some breakfast and pecan pie, I arrived at the Grand Canyon. Turns out that is a very cold part of Arizona. So wrapped in my blanket I watched the sunrise. A nice way to start a day I have to say.

Brad, I am a little afraid to read your blog. When I clicked on the link from Christin's blog, this pops up:

Is the content appropriate?? If not I am not sure your dad can handle it. I think come times Christin's frightens him. (at least from what I can tell from his comments)
Brado-
I didn't know you took pictures of this. You look all crazy & homeless under that blanket, but the sunrise is amazing.
That's my brother. Taking 190 mile detours. Gotta love it.
It was really only 90 miles each way. Which I suppose is close to 190 miles . . .
I absolutely completely am in love with that sunrise picture. I could look at it everyday and never get tired of it.
Beautiful.
Jessica, I thought the same thing when I logged onto it the first time. A phone call was placed right after I saw that note and logged back off. He assured me it was nothing bad and not to get on it until he told me to. I got tired of waiting and got on tonight. The wood was the only thing he was hiding, lucky for him! And your correct again that Christin's scares me at times....
stinkin nice pictures you have there. and it's good to do stuff like this when your single and can.
