Today we played tourist by visiting the Painted Desert and Petrified Forest National Park. And what a day it has been. We started out with the Painted Desert and here are some pictures that do not come close to showing how spectacular the color is.
And then there is the wonders of the Petrified wood and here are a couple of examples
It was hard to convince myself to keep taking picture with the temperatures were in the 40’s and there was a 25 MPH wind with 40-45 MPH gusts. at after taking the first pictures in the petrified forest it started raining. I looked a Virena and we made an executive decision that it was time to head back to the motorhome and get warm, actually as long as we were in the car we stayed warm 🙂
Our campground for 3 nights was OK RV Park in Holbrook AZ. Everything worked as expected and we even did laundry on one of our down days while waiting for the wind to blow itself out, boy was that a dream that didn’t come true.
Something to think about: Are we staying too busy trying to spend time with acquaintances and missing out on building meaning full lifetime friends and relationship with spouse?
