After about a mile, a stranger appeared beside the path. ③ “Am I going the right way ” I asked. He knew where I was going. “Yes, ” he replied, “you'll get there in five minutes.” ④ Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it. ⑤
Suddenly, the rain stopped and the clouds cleared. ⑥ The sun rose behind me and shone on the rocks. Far below me, the ground fell away and down to a river. ⑦ I was looking across one of the wonders of the natural world—the Grand Canyon.
