North Rim

hello hello hello hello beeps this is Randall and I am Dian bro coming to you live presc pickle lady in our lovely little Mile High town of presc Arizona Arizon we are here to talk about a recent trip we took earlier in the fall with some good friends shout out to Karen and Bob that’s right always a good time kinding enough the drive while we kind enough to drive he’s so great yeah yes it was lovely good conversation with Karen always a good time always we love to travel with them but anyway I digress we are here to talk about our latest (00:37) trip with them they took us to the north rim north rim of the Grand Canyon canab canab Kebab canab canab canab yeah yeah it’s just out it’s just outside of Arizona in Utah yeah um so first let’s talk about the the northr versus the south rim first of all if you haven’t been to the Grand Canyon oh my God what are you doing yes most people who been to the Grand Canyon have been to the south rim and the south rim is very nice it’s a lot more Disney than the North Rim the north rim is a lot more remote yeah it’s almost like a time capsule you (01:15) kind of feel like you’re visiting and it’s the 60s again or something it’s it’s true true you know it it’s very nice they have you can stay on the North and they have cabins darling cabins oldfashioned cabins an oldfashioned Lodge it reminds me of the the place and the shiny yeah The Shining just like that it’s so cool yeah and it’s stunningly beautiful now the southern Rim is beautiful I in my opinion this is a thousand times better yeah I liked it much better oh my gosh small Crow kind of people are really friendly because (01:48) it’s a longer drive it’s a longer drive you got to pay the price uh you go through just acres and acres and Acres of Aspen trees yes so we went in the fall gorgeous thousands and thousands of Aspens and when as we didn’t know this but when Aspens change their leaves or drop their leaves they’re all yellow so it’s a sea of yellow and sometimes on the mountains you’ll see a sea of yellow mixed in with some of the Evergreens yeah stunning yeah it’s absolutely abely stunning and you can go and you can sit on the porch and you can just sit and (02:22) stare at the view have a cocktail they have meals there as well if you wanted to eat there now they they CL yeah they close for the winter they close in they open again in Spring we were there a few weeks before they were ready to close that’s right the weather was gorgeous yes uh it was it wasn’t too hot it you know it wasn’t too cold it was very very nice my only with the restaurant was very good they have H uh places you can get a drink and stuff like that but the one thing I will say is not a lot to do if you’re staying in the cabins on no (02:56) the south rim overnight well you could hike and stuff like that but I can only do that so much yeah and you you can sleep and you know maybe smoke a cigar and that’s about it you know there’s not a lot going on no so we elected to stay in Kebab canab canab Cano yes canab canab canab Utah love that place Town precious little town such a cool town and so a lot of folks go there and stay we and that’s about a it’s about an hour drive from canab to the the north rim right uh but it’s well worth it because that that sound is really cool some of (03:31) the best meals I’ve had in a long fabulous meals we stayed at a great hotel
