The Grand Canyon

The following is a selection of photos from my recent trip to the Grand Canyon’s West Rim.

Films and photographs can’t prepare you for its beauty.

You can click to enlarge these pics but it’s impossible to capture the Canyon’s splendour. Nonetheless, these photos may give you an inkling.

  1. All that natural beauty and there was MJ to spoil it.

    MJ - the blot on the landscape.

    So did you find much cock there then?

  2. Piggy: You like theme parks, don't you? Especially the thrill rides?

    How's this then?

    *dangles Piggy over the edge of the canyon by his trotter*

  5. Pink: Piggy's being mean to you again?
    *drops Piggy off edge of cliff. rolls massive boulder onto him to make sure he stays at bottom of canyon*

    p.s. I took tons more pics but you can only look at so much rock online unless you're actually standing there yourself in which case you can't get enough.

  6. Such beauty..but I would be terrified to be there. I am one of those weird people who would think that somehow I would slip and fall to my death.

  7. Awaiting: You can probably tell how close to the edge I was standing in these photos. My friend wouldn't come anywhere near the edge as she has the same reaction as you do. Yet she went on all the thrill rides in Vegas. I wouldn't set foot on the rides yet I had no fear of the Canyon edge. Go figure.

  8. I would have panicked as soon as I saw the canyon...I am talking hyperventilating and all that shit.

  12. Awaiting: Just blow into a paper bag.

    FN: More science projects please! All involving Piggy.
    *claps hands*
    Didn't see any of the stone lodges. I think those are on the South Rim?

    SID: The cheek of you!

    Chelly: You'll just encourage me with talk like that.
    *remembers to send expensive prezzie to Chelly*
