This is a place that's on most people's bucket list, and all I can say is I understand why! It's really impossible to picture or describe. We didn't hike into the canyon at all, but simply stopping at the overlooks was more than worth it. It's crowded, the shuttle system is kind of confusing, and the ice cream place closes prematurely at 7 PM, but this is a landmark everyone has to see at least once.

Really no icecream after 7 pm? That's an extremely early last call for you guys. And really, how did cowboys make it to the West? We know how the EAGLES and blackbirds did.

O no!!!! You're not supposed to put stuff on social media about calling out from work. Wait, I mean, that sun made my rash feel better.
