The Grand Canyon from a Bird's Eye View as told to Dakota Powell

Grand Canyon National Park, AZ
Mike Smith, Eufaula, AZ

When I visited the Grand Canyon, I was working on a Pipeline job in Arizona. It was only a
few hours away, and I did not want to miss the opportunity to see it. It was around noon when I
arrived at the Grand Canyon National Park; it was packed. I had to wait at least an hour and a
half to get in. I finally got in. When I saw the Grand Canyon, it was worth the wait. It was like looking from a bird?s eye view. It was enormous from top to bottom and side to side. It was truly a miracle and a creation of god. I had never seen anything so amazing in my life.
