Grand Canyon and Carl Richards

Yesterday I went to the Grand Canyon to take pictures of Winter Canyon...I didn't get too much new but did get some elk and canyon pictures with snow.. It was cold and sunny. I had a great time. After that I went to Flagstaff to pick up Chaplain Carl Richards (Florence Prison Chaplain) at the train depot. He had been in West Virginia for the Christmas holidays and experienced a heart attack and a triple by pass as a result. The train ride home was rough as any movement is painful but he was glad to be back and we had a wonderful visit on the way back to Phoenix. This is his third open heart surgery....first was a bypass and that is still unclogged (PTL). It is as clear as the day they did it over 20 years ago. The second was when a car fell on him...ouch ouch...and then this 3rd one...He said it went great and was the easiest of all the surgeries...
