Yes; and you might also be left holding the bag.

You can read Spider's love life by his posting habits. When he's got the night off, his bag of inane comments is bottomless.

Good call, but my girlfriend's coming over tomorrow for the weekend, then we're leaving Tuesday for the grand canyon and Vegas.

If you are driving to GC check the website and make sure the north rim is still open. It closes around this time of year. The south rim will be open but it is a longgggg drive.

Also, if you take in Hoover Dam, take some time to drive past the dam. There are areas where the road gets close to the Colorado River, enough to walk down for a little picnic on the tree line and take in the mountains on the other side. (when I say close enough, 1/4-1/2 mile from the road)

We're meeting up with friends at the south rim.
