Have you heard about the Grand Canyon Skywalk? A glass enclosed horseshoe walkway that will allow people to walk 70 feet out into the canyon…4000 feet above the Colorado River!!?!
I learned about it over on Kingfisher Cove (you can see a picture here.) Just looking at the artist’s rendering makes me queasy. If I ever wondered whether I’m truly afraid of heights, looking at this confirms it. I think the only way you’d get me out there would be crawling along with my eyes squeezed shut. No thank you.
Yikes! And no thanks!
(An aside: the picture in the upper left-hand corner of your blog–where’s that from?)
It’s from the Chicago Botanic Garden, Fall 2004.
