I love hate hiking at the Grand Canyon and finding a good shitty spot at an edge to sit and feel the silence terror. It’s beautiful horrible. Enjoy and take pictures of your favorite spots splats.
Fixed that for me.
Oh, the height terrifies me. I crawl to safety before standing back up. Still LOVE sitting at the edge. I’ll dig up pictures.

I wouldn't know the Grand Canyon from a hole in the ground.......I'm here all week.

I'd have to be tied to safety line. Can't go any closer than two body lengths without a barrier.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Si! Los dos! Relax at the canyon, then head to Cali. Do it all, man. But for real, if you go to the Grand Canyon, post pictures. Pleaaaaaase.
It's looking more likely that I will be solely in California. But it's pretty exciting because I've never been west of Pennsylvania.

I literally crawl or drag myself to the edge. I actually sat for a while with my legs hanging down, but I froze and couldn’t get back up except for crawling backwards. Lol
This is like a year and a half ago I think. I posted it before. Ah, I wanna go back. It’s not even that far, but I keep using my road trip days for Cali or Phoenix.

Ugh! You’ll love it! I love California people. The atmosphere, the weather, the people. I’ve lived in different places of Cali, but even now I keep going for stupid reasons, like beer, or a movie with sis. Happy for you. Hope you love it as much as I do.
Found this in my sister’s fb lol
We had a weekend sister road trip that time. It was fun. She’s not afraid of heights, so I was a drag lol
Ok. Back to #werk

There is an expression where you point out a persons ignorance on a subject by saying that would not know the thing you are suggesting they are ignorant of "from a hole in the ground".
I had assumed that this was more widely known than it appears it is and attempted to make a joke on the subject.
I'm very sorry.

I am 100% like jack. I would be crawling toward the edge and couldn't stand up. That's scary just looking at pictures!

Buncha wimps.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Grand Canyon seems like an interesting visit one day. I have relatives in Arizona who keep asking me to visit. Maybe i'll pay them a visit one day and explore the Grand Canyon too. They live in Phoenix which is further away.
