Friends & the Four Corners

The four corners (the point where Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona meet- the only place I know that allows you to be in four places at once) is a wonderful national sight I have had the pleasure of visiting twice, both in the company of very good friends. It is ALWAYS a fun place to visit; along with the four corners point there are gift and food stalls, and quite a bit of scenery to see on the way there.

Four Corners or Bust! (Originally the goal was the Grand Canyon, but for the sake of time and other things, compromises had to be made)

Unlike the Grand Canyon where you pay $25 to enter, at the Four Corners, you only pay a modest $3 entry fee

And apparently, the fee is waived on Thursdays

As someone who has (much to my own surprise) become a frequent visitor of the four corners site, I have seen the place be redesigned.
Originally the 4 corners point was up on a platform

Now its been lowered so the gift stalls are above it. This makes the space more accessible and open in order to deal better with crowds. (This picture is not good proof of this, as this was taken 3 minutes before they shut the place for the night, and consequently the only people there were us and the security guard waiting to escort us out)
