I’ve been traveling with family since Friday. We’re on a tour of the Southwest to celebrate my mom’s 60th birthday. (Happy birthday Mom!)

So far we’ve been to Vegas (where I turned 20$ into 43$ and called it a day), the Hoover Dam (big and kind of dull), and a town called Williams in Arizona that was surprisingly interesting for a small town (and had the best mac and cheese I’ve had in ages).

Yesterday we drove to the big destination of the trip: the Grand Canyon. And I have to say, I think I’m a fan.

My brain keeps erroring out because it can’t process the math required to grasp what it’s looking at. It keeps insisting the canyon must be a green screen. It’s a pretty fun experience, frankly.

Has anyone else been to the Grand Canyon? Do you recommend any particular lookout points? Let me know!

P.S. My manuscript is at 22,000 words!
