The Journal of Thomas H. Chapin IV

This last weekend I got bored and decided to do something different.

I tend to be somewhat random at times, so I suggested to Samantha that we should go to the Grand Canyon. Neither of us had ever seen it and we figured it was about time. Technically, it’s only a 3-4 hour drive from Phoenix, so there wasn’t much of a reason not to. 30 minutes later, we were in the car and on our way!

While we were there, I attempted to take a couple of panoramic photos using the Autostitch method (see the apartment image in one of my previous entries for more details).

I ended up snapping a grand total of 300 photos, which I then pieced together to form the following larger photos. Click on a photo below to view the larger version.

And last, but *definitely* not least… A 360 degree panoramic image which I took while standing at the edge of the canyon. This is a must-see!

I also took a bunch of other photos, which I will attempt to put online in my photo journal here soon.

This is why I used to get lost in Dallas.
Compare in sharp contrast to Phoenix, which is all about roads going either North and South or East and West.
