Standing Among the Giants:
Saguaro National Park, September 2009
Standing among the giant saguaros, Emily looked so small.
Family of Four:
Saguaro National Park, September 2009
Emily exclaimed as we passed the cluster of saguaros on the left, “It’s our family. It’s Daddy and Mommy and sister and Emily.”

Off to bible study!
A Bend in the River:
Horseshoe Bend, September 2009
But none of this answers the original question: why do we have an <img> element? Why not an <icon> element? Or an <include> element? Why not a hyperlink with an include attribute, or some combination of rel values? Why an <img> element? Quite simply, because Marc Andreessen shipped one, and shipping code wins.

Desert View Watchtower:
Grand Canyon National Park, September 2009
The Watchtower was designed in the 1930s for the Harvey Company by Mary Colter, who also designed several other buildings in Grand Canyon Village on the South Rim. It was built to be a rest area and gift shop at the eastern end of the National Park.
Today, the tower still has a gift shop in it, and the upper floors provide excellent views of the eastern portion of the Grand Canyon.
More Dark Skies Over Zion:
Zion National Park, September 2009
On our way from Bryce to Page, Arizona, we made a brief detour to drive through Zion (from the East entrance to the visitor center and back). While we were at the visitor center, it began to rain. After we drove back through the tunnel (which fascinated Emily; it was dark, so she kept telling us she couldn’t see), the rain stopped and the sun illuminated the rocks of Zion with a wonderful light, under some dark threatening skies.
