I recently made the vacation trip of a lifetime - I spent two weeks rafting down the Grand Canyon. I highly recommend the experience for anyone. If you are thinking of going, please feel free to contact me if you would like my suggestions.

During the trip I painted almost every day. I do not feel that these paintings represent the best of my work, but they may have sentimental value to some of the people who were on the trip with me or who have seen these sites during their own trips. So I am offering them to you.

If you are interested in these pieces you will need to contact me by e-mail at valry@valry.com. I will make them available as 5 x 7 prints at $5 or printed notecards with envelopes at $3 each. You will need to let me know exactly which format and which piece you want and if you want the "sketchbook" cropped out. (I believe that leaving the "sketchbook" appearance enhances the images, but that is a matter of personal preference.)

Also, may I take this opportunity to thank those who made the trip so wonderful: my fellow adventurers, the absolutely superior AZRA staff, and my family who stayed at home while I left and played on the River.
