    Bit of RV clean up (tracking in a LOT of dirt!) and egg sandwiches before leaving Mather Campground. Sad to say goodbye, but excited for what's ahead!

    Stopped at Tusayan Ruin for Ranger Tour and kids sworn in as Junior Rangers of Grand Canyon. Lipan Point has far and away the most spectacular vistas, in our opinion. Backtracked for lost waterbottle (mine!) Saw a jack rabbit!

    Lunch at Desert View. Interesting making sandwiches while driving! Climbed the Watchtower, enjoyed the views, and talked with Flood Hefler, who's spent 40+ years in the canyon and authored a book.

    Finally got signal back after 72 hours without (kind of nice and also strange) and worked out the kinks on our missing blig posts!

    On to Page we go!!
