We recently took a trip.  We visited our son who resides in Phoenix, Arizona. While in Arizona, despite the advice of an airport greeter, my wife and I took a couple of  days and drove up to the Grand Canyon.  Apparently, only "tourists" take the three hour drive to see one of the Wonders of the Natural World.
I lack the eloquence to do the vistas and majesty justice.  The magnitude, the beauty, the grandeur were awe inspiring. (see I told you, if you think this does it justice, go look).
What can be said, is that once you have looked into, across, along, and over the Grand Canyon you will be changed.  If you were unsure of your significance this experience should resolve your understanding.  The rock at the bottom of the canyon is plus or minus a billion years old. The 'new' rock at the top, the stuff you walk on is 250,000,000 years old. The river has been flowing and cutting the Canyon for the last 5,000,000 years.  About 50 years ago some people dammed and now 'control' the river.
I think the river and canyon will out last the dams, it has already outlasted the men who built them.  'Just sayin'.

Too Long (or how I fail as a social media maven)

I just realized it has been close to two years since I last pecked out a blog post.  And truth be told I only Tweet when someone else says something clever.
I see and even consider, some profound things.  They tend to be internalized for use and potential sharing later.  My first thought is seldom to step up on the digital soapbox.  The result is a fail as a Social Media Maven.
With that said I am trying and the proverbial 'old dog' may be learning a few new tricks along the way.  We will see .  . .
