Said some of the hike is straight up and looks like you stood up it felt as though you could fall off.

    Wow, that's some climb. Good luck with 7 miles up. If you can do that, you can hike rim-to-tim at the canyon. Look forward to the pics.

    Might need a video camera for that hike. Just turn it on and save all your energy for breathing.

    Beautiful flowers-I can smell them in my living room right now-or is that my new deodorant? Anyway-beautiful flowers. That anonymous number guy left a comment on mine too.Is that what they call spam? It gives a bad name to the real thing-and that's saying something.

    Yes and a good album that is!

    @Larry
