Walk Two Moons

In chapter 34, Salamanca describes the day as "probably one of the best, and surely one of the worst" days for Gram and Gramps. What would you identify as the "best" and "worst" parts of the day.

On the road, the Hiddles stop to see Old Faithful in Yellowstone National Park. Gram stays up all night in anticipation. They get there early and stand right up against the rope, as close as they can get without being yelled at by a park ranger. Gram tries to get closer, but she's stopped by a ranger who tells her she's plenty close to see the geyser blow. Not so good but at least Gram finally made it. A crowd forms in anticipation. It gets closer and closer to the time when the geyser is supposed to blow. A few preemptive sputters disappoint a few bystanders, who believe that they're the main event. But then, the geyser's true, unmistakable eruption commences. Everyone retreats to avoid the full force of the spray, except for Gram, who revels in it. After Old Faithful, they light out for Idaho.
