Kyler has been to many places around Oklahoma with my parents and I, but my favorite adventure we have been on was going to the Grand Canyon. This past spring break my dad decided he wanted to load up and go see The Grand Canyon. I did not under any circumstances want to take Kyler to The Grand Canyon with us because I thought it would be way too terrible. I was so wrong though.

go now.” I heard these words escape my mom’s mouth for what seemed like the hundredth time. I nodded my head, signaling that I heard her useless words. I continued to face forward, as my glance was stuck on the steel death trap that mocked me in the mere distance. The machinery shone a blood red and bright yellow, and rose high into the heavens. Horrified screams of innocent young children and their parents traveled the distance and made my eardrums ring. My mind began to race with the images of…
