She Makes Me Nervous

Visited Horseshoe Bend just outside of Page, Arizona the other day. Now if you have been to the Grand Canyon you know how spectacular the views are. But at the GC you are behind a barrier. There is a path. You know where it's safe and you know not to go beyond the barriers.


At the Horseshoe Bend site there are no barriers, just big signs warning you that the edges may look solid but there might not be any supporting stone under the ledge. Not sure what Mary ate that day but she had no fear. Just looking over the edge from a safe distance back gave my stomach the willies, BIG WILLIES!


Not Mary. She was on the lip, leaning way over with my camera, trying to get the WOW! shot. I was way back behind her yelling, "Mary!  Get back here! You're giving me a heart attack" Maybe she's going deaf, not sure, but we both survived and these are the pictures she got. My heart is still racing.

Horseshoe Bend, a breathtaking site to say the least.

Yes, Mary looks very relaxed, but that dropoff is at least a 1,000 feet; one slip, no guardrail, no Mary. Fortunately she finally listened to me, didn't slip and we are still talking to each other.


If the weather co-operates we hope to leave today and head over to Monument Valley.


Update


It is cold and raining this morning. (8a.m.) I think we will just stay put, enjoy a book and Mary's home cooking.


Safe travels and thanks for stopping by.
