a young American Margaret.
There was no evidence as
to the cause of its death but
in its mouth was sand
plus a small water insect.
The weather today
was like yesterday only
more so. There were
small wispy clouds in
the south when we woke
up and they began
shifting towards the
north followed by heavier
dark clouds. The first
rain came to us during
lunch time which was
really nothing more than
a drizzle. The dark clouds
continued to pile in
during the remainder of
the afternoon but no
rain until about 4:00 PM
when we had a brief large
drop rain.
The tourist population
of the Grand Canyon has been
very small. We have seen only
two couples with one pack mule
each and three packers with 7
head of stock going over to Independence
