The end of the road with Pipes & Sticks on Route 66

Day 11:

By Willie McCallum

After a very successful concert in Flagstaff, having survived playing at altitude and all the various issues with reeds and breathing, we were up sharp Wednesday morning as there was a planned trip to Grand Canyon. Not just a quick visit but a guided tour provided by a retired Park Ranger, who just happened to be a member of the Southwest Skye Pipes & Drums in Flagstaff. Mike Stuckey had generously volunteered to give up his free time to go with us for the day giving us an in-depth tour of the South Rim area of the Canyon.
