Woops, I did not know that typing the URL would put the vid on here. Feel free to delete it, Francine. I’m Sorry!

Very good pictures, were you in an helicopter when you took these pictue.
Great.
juditon - January 18, 2013 at 3:35 pm |
No. In each case I was standing at a wall looking over the canyon.
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 3:37 pm |
Wonderful photos!
Cornelia Lohs - January 18, 2013 at 3:45 pm |
Fabulous! Someday I have to see this place.
wordsfromanneli - January 18, 2013 at 3:47 pm |
You will love it. It is a sight that will take your breath away.
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 9:50 pm |
I will retry without the vid this time – the theme could be the song “Get Your Kicks on Route 66.” Once again, I’m sorry Francine but I will know not to do that again. For those that do not know, I typed the URL of a song on youtube and it embedded in the comments.
louisva - January 18, 2013 at 3:48 pm |
No problem. I removed it because you asked me too. I remember seeing it on your post and enjoyed it. On our way to the Cameron Indian Post we crossed an intersection on old Route 66, I think I even has a photo of it.
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 9:54 pm |
I thought of Rt 66 because Flagstaff, AZ is in the lyrics to the song. It’s actually an old song, written by Bobby Troup in 1946. Nat King Cole re-popularized the song in the 50s, then us teenagers of the 60s liked or LOVED the version by the Rolling Stones.

Marvelous shots. Grand Canyon sure makes for a perfect spot for far and beyond!

This must have been overwhelming!
Yes, good luck

The Grand Canyon took my breath away — it was so expansive. Great photos, Francine.
God Bless You!
Lady Deidre - January 18, 2013 at 5:19 pm |
Thanks Lady Deidre, I appreciate your comment and I felt the same way. I could only stand there in silence out of respect for the glory of God who created all things.
God Bless you as well!
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 9:58 pm |
Good luck on the Oz trip!! And your beyond, sure has depth!
Nature on the Edge - January 18, 2013 at 5:28 pm |
Thank you! I’m hoping and praying I’m chosen.
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 9:59 pm |
Very nice pics of the G. canyon.
petspeopleandlife - January 18, 2013 at 5:33 pm |
Well done, Francine. All of the photos are quite representative of “Beyond” but that first one is especially appropriate.
ChgoJohn - January 18, 2013 at 8:49 pm |
Thanks John!
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 9:48 pm |
Can we vote and get you to Australia? You deserve it Francine. Imagine all the photos you could take! The Beyond photos are wonderful.
rutheh - January 18, 2013 at 9:20 pm |
No voting is involved. I had to submit an essay explaining why I deserve to go to Australia in 2000 words or less. A Long shot, but I’m hopeful I will be among the lucky ones chosen. Thanks for your well wishes.

I just saw your photos of beyond and they are awesome!
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 10:11 pm |
These are really great Francine! I was totally awestruck when i saw the Grand Canyon in person. It is beyond – for sure.
Ben Nelson - January 18, 2013 at 10:35 pm |
Thanks Ben, I know, every time I view my photos or see other peoples photos I am transported back to when I first saw the Grand Canyon and was struck speechless. Thanks for your comment and have a great weekend.
fgassette - January 18, 2013 at 10:39 pm |
Extraordinary location! Some day I hope to get there…

Your Grand Canyon shots are awesome.
eof737 - February 1, 2013 at 9:46 am |
I am so tempted to put my silly cocker spaniel in the car & take the trip up north to the canyon. I have seen it only once in winter & it is glorious.
