COUNTRY:
Kiva

DESIGN:
Two of the three times I have backpacked across the Grand Canyon — I have gotten a bruised, purpuric toenail from the steep downhill on the North Kaibab trail.  The first time was when I painted this one — on the left index toe.   The bottom  picture is the most recent example — on the right middle toe this time. I have learned to clip my toenails very close the night before the descent.  Purple Heart US stamp……  : )

MAILED:
by me at Phantom Ranch in 2003.
