Sunday, 9/23
Last night we got up around 2am to look at the stars (from the comfort of our new reclining chairs). Nils saw 7 shooting stars, I saw 4. It was MAYBE 40 degrees out....cold and clear. It's officially autumn, there's no escaping it.
Today was officially a Lazy Day. No big, heroic, death-defying hikes or kayak adventures. Just a little sight-seeing and then hanging out at "home". We took a drive out along the rim in the morning sunshine and stopped at a number of viewpoints. It's beautiful, and totally different from anything else we've seen so far.

We came back from our little drive just in time for football! Nils really deserved to veg out in front of the tv for a few hours after all the thousands of miles he's driven.
