Did she or didn't she?

I don't think so.  It is not at all something that I would expect from her, but I will not have the correct picture until I see her again, likely late tomorrow.

Our daughter Heather is in the Grand Canyon.  She is on a short backpacking trip with several friends.  It is my understanding that they have hiked down to the bottom with all of their supplies, and when they hike out the supplies will be carried by mules to make the ascent easier.  Heather has prepared very well for this, purchasing appropriate footwear, clothing, and other necessary supplies.  She has looked forward to this opportunity for several months.

Heather has red hair.  Not as red as what remains on my head, but red nonetheless.  She started out almost bleach blond, and it stayed that way until she was 4 or 5 years old.  Why the discussion of her hair?  Take a look at this photo that she sent just before the hike into the canyon began.

Is this a red-haired girl?  Hardly!  It IS Heather, but the hair color does not look the same.  What do you think?  Can the leopard change its spots?  No.  Can the girl change her hair color?  You bet!
