New Years Day 2012 - Starting off the New Year with a paddle down the Grand River. Except for the rain it was nice!
We celebrated the the strike of midnight on New Year's Eve at Verses! Fab Food!
Christmas Day - Nice day for Snowshoeing ... at least in Timmins is was!
I know it's December! But I just bought a new boat and the rain has swollen the rivers.... so I went out for a couple of paddles!
As you can likely tell.... it didn't end well. I swam!
Recently Visited Utah (yes... Utah!), Arizona, and Las Vegas
Here's a longer more wordy version of our vacation
Hiking through dry creek beds in Zion National Park in Utah was the highlight of my trip!
Zion has a wide variety of hikes, this is a view down into the valley that we got by hiking a fair ways up!
Then Sedona (Arizona), a very pretty little town where we enjoyed a sunset Jeep Tour into the desert
More views of Sedona
Then went went to the Grand Canyon - it lived up to expectations!
We stuck around for the sunset and were rewarded with a Full Moon rising!
We drove along what's left of Route 66. We interesting little towns like Seligman (pics above)
Then by the Hoover Dam and our final destination Las Vegas where we Cirque du Soleil's Beatle inspired "Love".

The Elora Gorge in my solo canoe - a lot of fun-
