On Wednesday we took the family to the north rim of the Grand Canyon. It is exceptional and we were happy to give the kids a chance to see it.

For lunch we ate in the dining room of the North Rim Lodge. On the advice of our waitperson we ordered elk chili in a fry bread taco. Fry bread is a flat bread dough that is fried. The dish got varying reviews from the table. Son thought his was great while I was less enthused. This is probably because mine was cold. I think I must have gotten the last of some pot.

Later we stayed over in Kanab, UT. Although dining choices there are limited, there are a few vegetarian restaurants and some Mexican restaurants. Due to our mixed party we went to the Escobar’s Mexican Restaurant. It was very good. John and I both ordered beef fajitas. I managed to transfer two of my three tortillas to my grandson, Sam, and my son. There was definitely plenty to eat.
