Michael 17th August in Grand Junction

An early start with Grand Junction Sunrise Club for our presentation and after breakfast we went up to Colorado National Monument which preserves one of the grand landscapes in USA's west. This plateau and canyon country is brilliantly coloured with towering columns and deep canyons. Lunch was at the golf club and afterwards we were off to No Thoroughfare Canyon for a 4 mile walk. The sign said 1.5 hours one way - well we did it in 1hour! No wonder Angela has lost 3kgs, she was the pace setter! This walk was the ticket just to get our legs and heart working!
After all our eating and talking, back to our hosts for a change of clothes and out for another party, as usual the clouds built up and a lightning display but no real rain, the same every night. Food and drink was laid on for us, its a wonder we are not all a bit heavier, but some are still the same weight as we started or lighter.

Ang says: What a Shocker.... I think Michael was tired when he wrote this blog, I have added a picture for him.
Since I have been here I have wanted to go Ten pin bowling, today is the day Aussie's vs Yanks, hopefully we wont let our country down and Emma will have good news tonight when she reports in..
