Gila Mission Day 7

We got up early in the morning to go to the Grand Canyon. This was going to be a long trip and it was really really early. I decided to rest in the car. I rode in the car with Dr. Cecil, Mary and Mitchell. I woke up a way down the road and didn't feel well at all. I thought I was going to hurl at any minute. I wasn't going to tell Dr Cecil I needed to stop but he must have seen me look green. He exclaimed to his wife Mary "Mary I think I need to make a rest stop". I was like praising the Lord for this stop. I ran out quickly and headed to some brush. You know I ain't barfin' in a public restroom. I mean I might as well puke on myself, it would be cleaner. Well I did manage to find a place to relieve the tension in my esophagus. I took a cool picture right close to that spot.

Finally we made it to the Grand Canyon. It was beautiful and no picture or video would ever do it justice. Yes people it is a big hole!! Although this big hole is painted with reds, oranges, browns, black, yellows and other wonderful colors. I am terrified of heights but there was no way my phobia was going to ruin this. I ventured all around and took pictures. I also found some shops up there where you could buy Native American crafts.

On the way back I spent time learning about Dr. Cecil and Mary. It was a great trip and one that I will never forget. We all returned and spent the night in fellowship and recalling the past events. The next morning we would fly out.
