A Peak at the Grand Canyon

'Twas a light rain during our visit to the Canyon.  We tool a look at the Canyon in the rain and went Into the 101 year old El Tovar Hotel for a wonderful lunch.  When we came back out, the Canyon disappeared in a shroud of fog.  So walked along the edge to the Bright Angel Lodge and on to the Kolb Studio on the edge at the beginning of the trail down the Canyon.  The Kolb brothers ran this studio for many years...taking photos of those descending and offering to sell them to the folks when they crawled back to the top.  They also took their cameras and the newly invented movie camera down the Colorado River from start to finish and charged admission to their movie in the studio.  By the way there are over 350 rapids to run on the river. One picture shows one of the brothers head poking through the side of a boat.  They just patched it and kept going.  

Here are some of my pictures of the rainy canyon, setting on the porch and inside pictures of the El Tovar and of the Kolb brothers.
