The day after the BIG blow. |
|
It has taken a LOT of running water to make this area what it is. |
|
Petrified tree trunks |
|
Big, long petrified tree trunks |
|
Notice Darlene at the end of a big, long petrified tree trunk |

Looks like someone ran a petrified tree through a log chipper |
|
Petrified log sitting on a ridge until it broke in half and fell down. |
|
Look at all the layers laid down by LOTS of water |
|
I wish you could see the earth tones, purples, light blues and greens in the layers |
|
Struggling to make it in a hostile environment |
|
Petroglyphs |
|
Pueblo ruins |
|
Rain comes out of the clouds, but never makes it to the thirsty ground (Virga) |
After Petrified Forest NP we will leave the Holbrook, AZ area, have an overnight at Albuquerque, NM, and land near Amarillo, TX at the "Grand Canyon of Texas" (maybe you didn't know there was such a thing). Pictures to prove what a beautiful place it is in my next post.
