Camping at Tuweep

We met Dee and Steve at the Chevron (there's only one folks...) and drove out a long dirt road to Toroweap Point. There is a scenic day use area and Tuweep Campground. We got the "best" campsite...kind of all to ourselves. They have very nice composting latrines out there...relatively un-smelly:) We traveled out Thursday afternoon and then set up camp. Then Friday, we lazed around and Steve took Andy and I out to Toroweap Point (see pics over the edge). Saturday, Steve, Andy, and I hiked east toward the "Grand Canyon" (it's all the canyon, but toward the North Rim area) to look for Steve's Grandpa's old mine. We found some cool stuff...of course, we hadn't taken the camera, because we didn't know if/how wet we might get. There were clouds and storms on and off...great camping/hiking weather. We came home Sunday and "vegged".

Andy started his summer school classes, and I am taking a class that someone else was signed up for originally. But my trainer is Mary Matheson, who used to be the instructional specialist at Cheyenne Elementary before I taught there...small world!
