Deposition. Uplift. Erosion. Grand Canyon.


Question: What makes Grand Canyon grand?
Answers: Because it's BIG!!! (Lauren & Emma)

We had a wonderful time at Grand Canyon. And if anything, we learned one thing about this amazing wonder: Deposition, Uplift and Erosion. The park ranger would be so proud of us! (Don't know what those mean? Go to Grand Canyon and ask the park ranger.)

It had snowed earlier in the week and daytime temperature was brisk. But we were prepared coming from New England after all. We were made of hardy stuff. Snow! We say, "Bring it on!"
