Back after about four nights at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Most tourist never visit the North Rim. However, to Kadizzle it is the best. Very few tourist and a vast wilderness with immense opportunities to enjoy. Debby and Al our old traveling friends set their fifth wheel camper right on the edge of the canyon. You cannot do that on the south side. There is way more to the Grand Canyon than most people realize. We rode the ebikes for ten miles along the rim. Our old traveling friend Cliff is working at the gift shop on the south side and got us some good deals on t shirts and a new cap. Actually we have about four traveling friends working the summer at the north rim.
The national parks all are much more than they appear to the casual tourist. It took us years to fully explore Zion. Way back in the late 60's Kadizzle did the " I been there tour". You get to a famous landmark get out gaze around for twenty minutes and get back in the car. Since then we have spent 22 years doing it right.
Always you meet new interesting people. Jessica just bought a tiny utility trailer that she turned into her RV. Might small and cramped, but she has been in it for 8 months. There are so many variations of RV living. Way out on Marble Point we found and older couple living in a small zippidi do da expensive adventure trailer. It was small, but had every bell and whistle including an on demand water heater. We constantly follow the new trends in campers. Like fools we tent camped at the canyon. It was not that bad, but we should have towed the monster up there. The bike riding was the highlight. In all we did about forty miles.
Gas prices have kept people at home. Tourist were down by a third, and that was nice. In summary if you go to the Grand Canyon for the first time get hold of us. We have been there about five times, and have many friends who work there.
