Here’s another “well, duh” songs from the queen of “well, duh.” 
I have been so overwhelmed (in the best way possible) by the beauty on this trip. Now to head for home through more beauty. But first, a song!
Grand Canyon Song - Steve Goodman
I absolutely LOVE Steve Goodman’s introduction to this: “Here’s a song for the Grand Canyon. I wrote this after I walked to the bottom in 1975. I just got back.” 
(For the record, the live show featured here was recorded in 1978.)
“It’s so beautiful that it takes your breath.” That is one of the most accurate line ever put in a song. I was in tears from looking at the beauty…then laughing as a squirrel walked up to a visitor and took a drink from his water bottle.
Yes, indeed. Run, come see what this river has done.

Too bad your whole world didn’t lie waiting behind door number three for this song.

It would have been so cool to see the squirrel do that!

It is a wonder to behold. Can you imagine riding a donkey through there? Ouch!

@FourWalls .......Back in the 1800s it was slow going through there and probably worse turrain than it is now.

I ended up in physical therapy the last time I rode a horse, so no thanks.

I looked that up, and it is gorgeous. No wonder it inspires songwriters!
