Nature is wonderful!

Oh wow! The Grand Canyon truly is an awe-inspiring place. And having a birds-eye view is a once in a lifetime experience. We took a 30 minute helicopter trip early this morning over the Grand Canyon and there aren’t many words that can explain how exhilarating and beautiful it was (and still is). After the snow storm we had yesterday afternoon we were blessed with blue skies and a few (and really only a few) clouds. The air is also a lot cleaner during the winter months.

Kurt braved the cold (an exact -17˚C) early this morning to take pics of the sunrise over the Canyon. We’re going to leave the pics to do much of the talking again! Minimum temperature: -17˚C Average temperature today: 1˚C Maximum temperature: 4˚C

Growth - Ferrucci (1982)

"Growth is understanding what we have not yet been able to conceive; feeling what we have never felt before; doing what we have never done before. It is daring what we have never dared. It may not, therefore, necessarily be pleasurable. It obliges is to leave our comfort zone, to progress into the unknown, to face the tremendous inpact of the Self."
