The Grand Canyon: There CAN Be More Than One!

Someday, this little monkey's gonna go west, yes I am!
Hiya, Friends!  Well, you know me!  I say I like to learn something new every day, and yesterday, I learned a biggie. 

All my life, I've thought I lived less than an hour away from the Grand Canyon.  You know, the big one the Brady Bunch took a trip to, and where you can ride a donkey to the bottom, and then ride it back up to the top.  So yesterday, I telephoned up the Grand Canyon that's less than an hour from my house, wanting to make an appointment to go on a trip with the donkey and such, and as it turns out, not only does the Grand Canyon less than an hour from my house not have donkey rides, it's actually the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon!  The Brady Bunch was never there on a vacation!

How about that?!

Welp, as it turns out, there isn't just one Grand Canyon.  There's the big Grand Canyon that's out west, and there's the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon less than an hour away from my house.  They're not the same thing, but they're both beautiful.  I'm glad I've learned about this now, before I had the opportunity to REALLY embarrass myself.

It's got me to thinkin', though, Big People.  I'd like to be in charge of a tourist attraction.  I'd like to make a little money, selling T-shirts and keychains, so here's what I'm gonna do: One of these days, I'm gonna take the garden hose and put it at the top of our driveway and let it run and run and run down the drainage rocks.  I'm gonna let it run so much that it fills up the drainage rocks and cascades down like a beautiful waterfall, and then, do you know what I'm gonna do?  I'm gonna call it the North Bingham Niagara Falls!  I'll put a T-shirt and keychain stand at the end of my driveway.  I'll get the Amish to build a casino in the pasture across the street, and I'll be all set!  You'll come, won't you, Friends?  Save your pennies!  Hahahaha!

And remember, Zoe loves you!  Muah!
