| Petrified Log |
The Painted Desert and the Petrified Forest were a 50 mile
side trip on our way to meet the Kuklentz.
Wow! What different terrain. The
Red Rocks gave way to a rainbow of colors and wide high prairies that are
probably as green as they get any time of year (which is only slightly green!). They said in the movie at the visitor’s
center that they estimate that even with the inspections and signs, they lose
about 1 ton of petrified wood a year.
How sad. I hope Dave’s pictures
come out, but there is no way you can grasp the vastness of this area without
being here.
