Up at 4:30 or so... at the airport around 5:30.... flights to Vegas was on time and uneventful.... two very important things.
First thing was to have lunch with a couple friends that I haven't seen in several years... W9XR & KH7R for you ham radio people.
We headed for the Grand Canyon right after lunch.... and decided to stop at Hoover Dam on the way.
After a 2 hour stop on the damn, it was off to Grand Canyon Village. We made good time...got there around 9:15pm... ears popping along the way. It was just 9:15pm.... and almost everything was closed. The only thing that was open was a restaurant at the Best Western. Drastically overpriced.... but what else can we do? We ate and crashed early......both feeling a bit queasy, which was apparently from being up at 6800 feet ASL.
