Once again, I have made it back to the beginning of the earth! Or at least the beginning as my Dad is known to have told tall tales about. This location is Davidson Canyon in Arizona. Clint, myself and the kids headed out to Phoenix this weekend to spend a week. Clint had originally planned to come to hang out with his brother for the Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction and it evolved into a family vacation. Luckily for me, my work can travel as long as I have internet and a phone available. The kids were fantastic on the drive out. They didn't get a lot of sleep Wednesday night, which turned out to be a good thing because they slept a bunch during the ride on Thursday. I made sure to pack Lorelle's Tinkerbell backpack with Barbies, Tinkerbell dolls, My Little Ponies, Magnetic Paper Dolls and a couple of books. Tyler's Cars backpack is packed with his Disney Cars, tractors, farm animals and a couple of books. After dinner the kids became a little restless so we watched Barbie The Island Princess and we started Cars, but the kids feel asleep not even 20 minutes into it. In Arizona, we passed by Davidson Canyon. I have travelled this stretch of road more times than I can count and always keep an eye out for the small little road sign indicating this location. Though most people would probably not ever notice it, I have heard about Davidson Canyon my whole life. My Dad theorizes that this was the beginning of the Earth. And though I rolled my eyes while hearing all the stories before, I can't wait until I can start telling my kids about my Dad's theory.
Are we the ONLY people in the world that get teary eyed reading a blog about Davidson Canyon??? Are we the ONLY people in the world who BLOG about Davidson Canyon??? How about the only people in the world who even notice that tiny little sign???
