Super Large Rift in the Ground

If you’re planning a trip to the Grand Canyon, a couple guidelines:

1) Don’t forget to tie your shoelaces – there are no guard rails

2) Charge the battery to your camera – you will want the ability to take 500 photos that all look the same

3) Rob a small bank on your way in – you need 25 bucks to pay the super cheerful park guy at the gate

4) Bring your own trumpet, or better yet, a whole brass section – you will need the proper accompanying fanfare as you take in the views

5) Have a napkin or handkerchief close by – this is to stifle your laughter during the IMAX Grand Canyon movie (which, apparently, is not meant to be a comedy)

The Colorado River, way down there.
