In This Podcast Mark and Debbie get out of town for the weekend and escape the Las Vegas heat!! This is our story as we head off to the beautiful Grand Canyon North Rim. The high there was 75 degrees with a low of 55 degrees. A wonderful escape from the unrelenting summer time Vegas heat.

Off to Grand Canyon North Rim
The north rim of the Grand Canyon National Park is almost 2,000 feet higher than the South Rim. It’s only open from May to October with very little development. If you plan to go there and stay for the night, book as early as possible. The lodges at the rim are wooden cabins built in the 1930’s that are great for couples as well as families. The cabins have natural air conditioning – meaning open the windows and turn on the ceiling fans. No internet and no in room television.
