Well I'm planning next year. I'm thinking I need to recreate this trip with my usual camping group (and particularly with Lani).
One of the reasons it wasn't a big deal for me to come out alone was because we thought we'd seen the main sights down there on our other visit -- I'd never, for example, do a first visit to the Grand Canyon without Lani. We didn't realize we'd missed most of the good stuff. So now I've got to bring Lani up to speed and it seems this particular weekend is about perfect for it being uncrowded and generally warm (despite the nonsense you all talked it was decidedly NOT cold on Saturday night. I barely pulled into my sleeping bag that night.
