This was the last scenic pull off we visited on the Hermit Road at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.
Don’t get too excited, the saga isn’t over yet.
This particular spot was stunning.
The grandeur…
The colors…
The hermits.
But it was cooooold.
So cold.
And though there were captivating things to read about rocks…
I took my last picture… and jumped into the warm car.
But wait.
Could it be?
Had I really found it…?
The official site of Hermit reunions!
Who knew.
River's world..... 
There’s something appealing to me about the hermit lifestyle. Don’t know if I could go all in, but a girl can dream…

I love solitude. And get twitchy if I don’t have enough alone time…
But full hermit with no outside contact? Probably not. Who would mix my cocktails?

EXACTLY. It’s all about balance and priorities. 🍸

Would you consider hermits the same as introverts?

Probably not. I think of a hermit as living in solitude, in an isolated place, totally off the grid.

Introverts make great hermits and recluses!
Extroverts die a slow and lonely death.

All hermits are probably introverts, but taken to the extreme.
So what you’re saying is, live alone in a cave… or die slowly and alone. Aren’t you just a ray of sunshine!

Well, it was the last scenic pull off on the Hermit Road. I think there’s one or two more Grand Canyon posts in the (what feels like never ending) series.
But no worries.. the trip’s not over.
There will be more rocks.

I’m practically a hermit since I only go outside when it’s absolutely necessary… and I’m sure the dump I share with my cats could be considered a cave. I’ve also met Peter Noone before, so I have a connection with a real Hermit…

I think there are a lot of things I could get down with if they only happened every ten years… Mostly they involve family.

I think every 10 years is just about right.
I’ll bring a casserole…. (and tequila. Lots and lots of tequila)
See you there.

I will never forget the time a friend was going through a rough patch, and my sister immediately said: “Well we need to bring a casserole or SOMETHING.” <–All of that to say, yes. Casserole and tequila. There's really nothing else you need.

Casseroles make everything better. Especially ones with cheese… those could solve cold fusion.
