A Quaint Grand Trip

We decided to fly out of a small town airport to avoid the hectic chaos of the huge international airport, and I say we made an excellent decision. This quaint airport was modern, classy, and luxurious despite the only 2 gates from which to board and disembark your flight. There was a fully stocked bar lounge and a Beecher’s concession stand that served every diet from keto to carb load. 





What's even more impressive with this airport is that it shares a runway with her planes maker: Boeing. The "white tails" rolling off the assembly line are a sight to experience!





Not to mention flying over your own neck of the woods! 





Our 3 hour journey took us over frozen landscapes, and finally over the vast expanse of the Grand Canyon.







Our destination was the Grand Canyon State of Arizona, where, it seems, most of the locals are transplants who sought respite from dreary weather and nasty attitudes. For here, it is sunny all the time whether it's cold or hot, and there's always a past time to discover every weekend.






Once on the ground, we grit our teeth at the long line for our rental car. Smile, we say to ourselves. Beyond the walls of the car rental garage are javelinas, bobcats, hares, and saguaro cacti standing in salute to welcome us. 




And NO MASKS!!!
