My wife and I were doing a quick drive-by, hitting all the overlooks. She finally stopped getting out: “It’s just a big hole in the ground.”
The meteorite crater did impress her, though; she didn’t know what we were stopping for, and when you get the first view, she said, “Whoa!”. That’s about it, though. Rockies, Carlsbad, Sequoia Nat’l Park: nothing. A real Nature Girl.

Yup—I was one of the guys going beyond the “Do not cross” barriers to take photos during my visit to the Canyon years ago. I remember one of Dad and me, where we were standing at the edge of a rock, in front of a big drop-off. Smart? Not so much. Good photos? Heck, yeah. Great trip.
