    Death canyon
    In the summer of 2009, my family and I took a trip to Arizona to visit my cousin who was

    living over there. While we were there, we decided to go to the Grand Canyon and other stops

    along the way. The first thing we did that day was head to Walmart and buy ourselves some

    snacks and water for the drive. It was a fun ride especially with the view of the forest although the

    grand canyon is in Arizona it was still a good drive from where they were living, we ended up

    getting breakfast from McDonald’s and I remember we put on a playlist and made our way over

    to the canyon. On our way over there, I was thinking how nice it would be to play in the snow and

    have a snowball fight with my whole family.

    Once we arrived my family decided to explore different locations in the canyon. We decided

    to go to an indoor event that was happening there. The event talked about the history of the grand

    canyon and how it formed 5 to 6 million years ago. Afterward, we decided to go to a certain part

    of the canyon that my cousin was familiar with. He enjoyed throwing rocks at the edge of the

    cliff. As a small child, I looked up to him a lot, always following him around and going places

    with him all the time. I remember that I wanted to get a closer look at what he was doing near the

    cliff. I got too close to the edge where my cousin was throwing rocks and he hit me in the head,

    which caused me to trip and I almost fell over the edge of the cliff. Everyone rushed to grab me

    and my aunt snatched me into her arms. Looking back at it, my family and I make jokes about it.

    From now on we always make sure that my little nephews are never in danger when we go

    places. Especially when we visit the grand canyon now that I'm older and I know right from

    wrong.

    From this, I learned to be more cautious on every trip I go, for example I check both sides of

    the street. I'm always aware of my surroundings, making sure I'm not in danger anywhere I go all

    the time, especially at amusement parks, outdoor events, and anything that has warning signs.
