Happy Holidays!

New pictures are now available on my web site, including a couple of new ones from Grand Canyon. I'm still going through pictures, editing, and building web pages, so look for updates over the next couple of weeks. Well, probably sometime in early/mid-January. I'm back on a 6-day work week for the next couple of weeks while the hotels are sold out through the holidays, but I expect things to slow down considerably after New Year's.

Hope everyone has a very happy holiday!

Fotogal is in Grand Canyon National Park

So, after a lengthy lay-off from the blogging world, I'm back. Spending the winter in "sunny, warm Arizona". So, why did I put that statement in quotes? Check out this picture:



Yes, snow. About a foot of the stuff fell over night on December 15th. And it is snowing heavily as I write this, and has been for several hours already.

So much for going someplace warm for the winter. My only consolation is that it is, at least, warmer than Yellowstone last winter.

I'm going to try very hard to maintain this better this winter. My internet access is fairly intermittent. Well, it's fine if I feel like traipsing up to the rec center or to one of the hotels everyday. Which I don't. Oh well.

I've been working on new pictures of the canyon to post on my web site. Stay tuned for those. It is beautiful here. Well worth coming down for. I'm putting in my time working in housekeeping. I knew those folks worked hard, but I had no idea! No, it's not my favorite job in the world, and I'd probably like it better if I were getting my hours, but at least I'm working.
