Painted Desert

The Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert are basically in the same park. You enter one from the south and one from the north. Both Visitor Centers are worth a stop, though the one at the southern end is better because they have a short trail where you can see petrified logs up close.

The Painted Desert was crazy spectacular!  I'm really happy I visited.   The colors were amazing; blues, purples, pinks, tans, just like someone took a paintbrush to the hills.  Beautiful.















There was a fellow with camels there - he was busy talking to a lady so I didn't stay to find out what his deal was, but the camels seemed to feel right at home ther ein the desert.











After a wonderful day exploring here,
I got back on the Highway and headed to Gallup, New Mexico.
