    … it happens every once in a while, and this time I was on the road from Cameron to Desert View at the Grand Canyon … it looks so much more serene from the ground … from above the entire landscape appears to be rendered and in fact it is. This is a shot from the road of the Little Colorado Canyon; it urns to the right and then to the left heading to the edge on the left just above the center of the image. The LC canyon is only a couple of hundred feet deep at Cameron, but by the time it reaches the Colorado River some thirty+ miles downriver, the canyon reaches a depth of approximately four thousand feet.

    About twelve miles upstream from the Confluence of the two rivers, Blue Springs feeds two hundred cubic feet of a highly mineralized water into the Little Colorado River, and when conditions are right (no river flow at Cameron) it turns the water a very bright turquoise color. Where the rivers converge is the end of Marble Canyon and the beginning of the Grand Canyon. The air quality was pretty hazy the day I took this shot.

    A very productive day and only fourteen more images to process for the book, then the placement and writing of the copy for each photograph. Ran into a streak a couple of hours ago when I opened ten photos in a row, worked them and did not like the outcome so deleted them … felt good!

    Another nice day is underway and time for some rest before resuming it … espresso shall fuel the morning hours. Have a beautiful day and keep breathing, the day goes so much more smoothly when you do.

    Smile, life is good!

    Impose upon yourself the task of happiness;
    And now and then abandon yourself
    To the joy of laughter.

      Nice shot Ted!


    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
