The kids had never been as far as the cairn garden, so I took them there today. They each wanted to add their own cairn.

Annie put a little mushroom on top of hers for a hat.

Michael's is graduated like the stacking boxes young children play with.

Jay's is very cleverly balanced. It looks like it might blow over in the next big wind, but I don't think it will.
Tomorrow we are headed for the Grand Canyon since it's only about 85 miles away. I figure we'll be home for dinner. Cross your fingers that I can get some really great pictures there.

Very finely balanced. Just right.
When you built the cairns you participated in an ancient activity. Cairns were prehistoric monuments and even today they show where the trail goes. We followed cairns across the floor of an active (but quiet) volcano in Hawaii.
Those are some nice cairns... hope you had fun at the Grand Canyon!
