10 days 2600 air miles 2000 road miles 20 foot miles 5 national parks 1 national monument and 5 states Oh and we had time to spend 2 days at the pool. So after the dust settled and we looked back at were we have been: Arches National park, Canyon Land National Park, Hovenweep National Park, Mesa Verde National Park and Death Valley National Park. Canyon of the Ancients National Monument. We bounced and vibrated are way down some great roads and we hiked down some dusty, sandy, rocky and salty trails. We found mountains that collapsed over time due to rain water, canyons carved out by the Colorado river. We made it to the lowest place -264 feet below sea level in Death Valley. Canyons that where so quite that It made your ears hurt due to the absents of any noise. Mineral deposits of every color of the rainbow. We visited ancient Indian ruins and homes that they built on the side of cliff and on top of rocks. When the jeep started to look like a rolling ball of dust, from are travels we knew it was time for Vegas. Oh the land of make believe. After going and going, it was time to shutdown for a few days by the pool with a cocktail and contemplate your bellybutton. It is always good to get away from home, to see what is out there and to see how others live and to appreciate the place you call home. I will post more photos later.
