The Trek Home and the Grand Canyon






After a wonderful week it was time to make the very long 30 hour drive back to Texas. Not going to lie, it was a bit depressing going back knowing that the vacation was over and it was time to go back to work and reality. Reality and adulting is over rated.
We drove the same route home, and saw a few extra things. Like this creepy clown motel in Tonopah Nevada. Nightmares anyone?

We then made a detour to see the Grand Canyon!! Here's the thing - it's the Grand Canyon. It was an hour and a half off our path home. But I have never once regretted taking a detour to see it. Plus the groom had never been there, so it was pretty much a no brainer. Yes, it made the day extra long and painful being in a car for like 17 hours. But totally worth it. It was chilly, and they were expecting a snow storm that night, so it was good we went when we did.




The next morning we woke to snow on the car and it still coming down. I love the snow. I miss it. The rest of the drive home was pretty uneventful as we went from glorious 50 degree fall mountain weather to 90 degree Texas heat. Sometimes I wonder why I live in Texas.
