By Ted Grussing… a somewhat unusual event to be in the air early morning and have the sun more or less on my back as I shoot looking towards the southwest which really helps reduce the effect of haze in the air. I took this Saturday morning and I was approximately over Grand Falls on the Little Colorado River when I took the shot and maybe around 7,000’. The near volcano center right is Roden Crater in the Painted Desert and it is the ongoing art project of James Turrell. You can learn more about this amazing project at: http://rodencrater.com/…

By Ted GrussingSaturday a friend and I scrapped plans to do Sunset Crater and headed to Desert View at the Grand Canyon and hit the various overlooks and points as we worked our way up to The Village. Seemed like a great idea and the car was washed several times as we drove up SR89. Quite a bit of smoke in the GC and likely that was the cause of not that many visitors compared to other times I have been up there … still it was beautiful and if you looked up the canyon with the sun on your…

Information & Perspective by Warren Woodward(June 25, 2016) As I mentioned in the last update about my Public Records lawsuit against the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC), the judge had released to me all the unredacted documents that he got from the ACC. That put the ACC lawyers into a tizzy.A word about the ACC lawyers: One of them is the ACC’s new “ethics officer.” Seems to me if he had any he never would have taken this case on and tried to defend the indefensible. The other two lawyers are from an outside firm the ACC hired because I guess the…
