Gale and Leon
My sister and brother-in-law, Gale and Leon, arrived last Wednesday for a visit. Julie and I took vacation Thursday to add to our usual Friday day off.
Thursday morning gave us a light snow that couldn't withstand the morning sun. We drove to the top of South Sheba cinder hill and briefly endured 50 MPH winds then drove to Grand Falls on the Little Colorado River about 10 miles northeast of home.

Looking at Merriam Crater from the top of South Sheba. A lava flow from Mirriam created Grand Falls. (Larger version)
Looking east-northeast from North Sheba toward Grand Falls. (Larger version)
Grand Falls from a distance. (Larger version)
Close-up of the falls. Notice the small observation building in the top right. (Larger version)
Looking downstream on the Little Colorado River showing red sandstone on the east bank and black lava on the west bank. (Larger version)
