When I was a kid, probably six or so, my family visited the Grand Canyon. All I remember about the trip was asking, "What's so grand about it?" And as much as they tried to explain it to me, my family couldn't convince me of how amazing it was. Now, 20 years later, I was anxious for the chance to visit again, since I love geology and visiting National Parks. We took a detour on our long drive from Lubbock, Texas to Ontario, Oregon and drove through the Grand Canyon. Because of Hattie, and since we had a lot of driving still ahead of us, we didn't spend as much time there as we would have liked. But I was glad to go back and spend a while enjoying the beauty and majesty of the canyon.
Hattie was a little scared at first, but she overcame her fears after Paul held her for a while

I hope you guys are having a fantasticly fun vacation away from school and lubbock. See you in a week!
Cool! I didn't know you did that detour. We are trying to plan a trip there sometime ourselves.
Side note: I don't think my kids understood how majestic the Redwoods are, either.
