It is hard to believe that it was 40 years ago (July 29, 1983 to be exact) that National Lampoon's Vacation was released.
That summer, I took a vacation trip to the Southwest/Four Corners region that included Grand Canyon National Park; Durango, Colorado (I took my first ride on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad); Four Corners Monument; and Zion National Park.
After I got home from the trip, I went over to the theaters in Manhattan Village to see the movie. The scene outside of the El Tovar Hotel at the Grand Canyon caught my attention as I was at that spot only days before.
Time sure does fly!
