Almost all religions I know about fast one day or another. In fact I respect all who do this religious fasting. My lifestyle with my boy doesn’t allow any kind of religious fasting.

Yesterday I was doing some paperwork. American way of writing the date is momth/ date/ year. But after many years, I wrote as date/month/year, the Indian way or the way I was taught as a kid. I really do not know how I made the mistake. The muscle memory is the one I was taught…

The Hualapai Indians tribe owns the Grand Canyon West Rim. Unlike the other rims which are part of Grand Canyon National Park, entrance for a person to this one is expensive. There is sky walk and photography is not allowed and it does cost each person 50 dollars. Also, they charge 25 to 50 dollars…
