Lloyds Lake with Abajo mountains in the background.
After a lazy morning relaxing “at home” (in Addie!), I explored absolutely AMAZING Mesa Verde National Park! Petroglyphs, cliff dwellings, ruins, and canyons…WOW! I mean, WOW!
Spruce Canyon
Cliff dwellings – they are near the mesa’s top but hidden from view if directly over them!
Cliff dwellings 🙂
Cliff dwellings – simply amazing!
Cliff Palace (access to the palace was closed today but I saw it from across the canyon)
Petroglyphs 🙂
What a phenomenal day! Beautiful scenery, different landscapes, surprising cultural sites – started with a morning coffee walk among the red rocks. Monument Valley (arch at my campsite!), Mexican Hat Rock, Goosenecks State Park (San Juan River meandering through the rocks), Bluff Fort, Hovenweep National Monument. Ah…! 🙂
OMG! Yes, I kept yelling out OMG all day during today’s adventures! First 2 pics: Walnut Canyon National Monument’s cliff dwellings. Next 3 pics, lava and crater at Sunset Crater National Monument. Then 3 pics of Wupatki National Monument’s pueblos. The last photo is from Monument Valley. Very busy, active, and breathtaking day! Ah…! 🙂
Perfection.
Fun spending time with Yvonne and Amelia Earhart!
Plan C: it’s the journey and not just the destination. Photo #1 from Sunset Point Rest Area on my way to GORGEOUS Sedona. Guess what? I’m not the only one who wanted to visit Sedona right now! Plan A: Sedona Elks – full. Plan B: Sedona RV parks – all full. Plan C: Cliff Castle Casino parking lot – empty (photo #2)!
Adventure time! First stop: Joshua Tree! Can you hear me oohing and aahing? 🙂
