My vacation

[JustJenn 542]

I'm one year post op this month and my summer vacation was pretty great. We went to Grand Canyon for a week.

I finished a 3 hour hike in canyon but as many know it takes twice as long coming up than going down, but I made it. When I finished I was glad to have my 3 year post Mother with me. I got kinda emotional telling her one year ago this would have been impossible! We were so proud. Although at times I wondered how long it would take to get a mule or helicopter to get me out! Lol I took tons of pics going down and like 1 coming up!

I'm so glad to have been blessed with the chance to live a healthier life style that would include hiking!

What trail is that? I think I hiked that trail a couple years ago. Definitely tough coming back up!!

The one my husband and I did was the south kaibob trail. I felt so great the say we did that. We started at like 4 in the morning. It was awesome.

It was the bright angel trail we started at 5am lol I thought that was too early but I was so glad we started that early.

Oh that is a great trail too! I would love to go back to the Grand Canyon. It is really nice. We even went to the North side too and stayed in a cabin. What a great memory.

It was great. Tons of walking and bike riding we had a fun time.... We are thinking of going again maybe in the winter- snow:)
