Grand Canyon

'If I was Paul Bunyan / I'd carry you so far away'

Paul Bunyan is a giant lumberjack from North American folklore, whose travels led him to encounter inter alia a purple ox, enormous ants, and he smoked a giant pipe [illustrated life story]. According to the legend, he created the Grand Canyon by dragging his axe behind him.
