These are some of the pictures we took on our first adventure of the Down and Out... That is we hiked down the Grand Canyon to the river on the Bright Angel Trail (9.5 miles) and then up again on the Kaibab Trail (7 miles). That makes for a total of 16.5 miles... We accomplished this feat in 7 hrs and 37 mins which included Lunch at Phantom Ranch (This was all calculated by my new Garmin 205 toy). It was a blast!!!!

Pat Tillman's Run

Yet another race... This is the first time I have participated in the Pat Tillman Run. Remember he is the ASU/Cardinal Football player that died in Afghanistan. It was for a great cause and I plan on participating in upcoming years. It is another sad reminder of all the war and chaos. It was fun however to have Reed and my friend Debbie participate with me. Oh and for the record Reed kicked my butt even being sick.

We had a blast camping in Sedona after the retreat with some of the Residents, Rich, Evan, Amber, Lizzie & William, even Grandpa Gary for a short stint... Haha. The weather was perfect and Rich made awesome food as always.
