I put it on my "Bucket List once I was diagnoised with M S. I'm terrified of heights (always have been) now made worse by a horrible sense of balance, veritgo and some weird stuff with my ability to sense distance at times. I ran (best I could), I tried to jump (but fell), I sat, I laid, I would have leaned over the barrier had I been able to. It was absolutely the best. I marveled at the wonder and beauty I never ever would have seen had I not went. What have I missed because of a four letter word starting with F (FEAR). I spent the piror night in Peach Springs at the western town and was treated to trying to take part in a gun fight, throwing a hatchet, roping a steer (bale of hay) going on an old fashined wagon ride, my favorite was the old fashioned Cowboy sing a long around a fire making smores. I even went on a Helicopter ride, OMG. Some of the most wonderul memories! I would go back again and again if I could. Only my opinion but if you ever have the chance; Go!
