Dear Charlie, The Grand Canyon really is quite grand, despite the poor reproduction. The reverse looks nothing like the real thing, believe me! Imagine Dorothy in Oz and all that crazy color and realize we live in a black and white world. In an hour we’re taking mules down to the bottom for three nights of camping. I’ve named my ass after you. He is a stinky ass. I hope my ass doesn’t step in any holes for there are plenty of ass holes here! The sky at night is so dark & clear, the stars so starry you can’t believe what we’re missing in New York. It’s like a firecracker vs fireworks. Next stop the Hoover Dam for a bit of manmade glory. Hope you’re doing well in Canada. Caught any big ugly fish? Looking forward to the lies.

Echo … Echo … Echo …
