The Rim Trail is along the South Rim       The Grand Canyon,  the mighty Grand Canyon.  One of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and I had an opportunity to visit a few years ago.  This is a trip that I will never forget, and I'm looking forward to going back very soon.   On the drive to the canyon we watched a video all about the history of the canyon.   The driver, who was a knowledgeable guide, gave us a chilling  build up as we approached the canyon.  He informed us about the tales of people falling off the canyon.  The trip to the Grand Canyon is about a four hour drive from vegas.   Here are a few pictures that I captured while there.   Map of the various points    This was an amazing trip.  The Canyon is breathtaking, spectacular in size.  Walking around the canyon you had to be very aware of your path because there were no railings.   ...

     Thousands gathered at Shaw University on Saturday February 8th, 2014 to let their voices be heard once again in protests against Governor Pat McCrory's signing of several bills that are very controversial in the state of North Carolina.   When Governor Pat McCrory was elected into office in 2012 his victory also helped give the republicans the majority in both state houses, something that hasn't happened since 1870.       In response to some of the controversial bills that the governor has signed, Moral Monday protests were organized.  Hundreds gathered every Monday for civil disobedience rallies which were held peacefully. Demonstrators entered the state legislative building with the intentions of getting arrested.  More than 900 demonstrators have been arrested since the protests began.  Religious leaders along with Rev.William Barber, head of the North Carolina chapter of  the NAACP organized the demonstrations. ...
