Horseshoe Bend, Monument Valley, Four Corners and Today


Last night we slept in Page, AZ, apparently the epicenter of awesome Southwester Desert formations. We planned to start the morning with a tour of the Antelope Slot Canyons, but the admission was 50 dollars per person and we can't afford it, so we added it to our bucket list for next time. Instead, we visited the beautiful Horseshoe Bend. At this point, the Colorado River curves 270 degrees, forming a beautiful horseshoe gouged deep into the Earth.


We drove through Monument Valley and were awestruck by the beautiful rock formations scattered across the desert. It was really cold and rainy out, which we thought was interesting.




After the monuments we drove to the Four Corners Monument which sits on the corners of Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. While there we took advantage of our chance to be in four places at once. If only this ability extended to other areas of our lives...






Today we are in Farmington, New Mexico and are planning to make it to Wilburton, Oklahoma by Monday morning. Right now we are planning to stop halfway in Amarillo, Texas, but that may change, we'll just have to keep you posted.

I hope all is well where ever you may be.
Peace and Love
