Spent yesterday touring the Painted Desert/Petrified Forest National Park east of Holbrook, AZ. I did stop at the former while driving to Augusta, GA, and Ft Gordon in Nov 1961, but may have only taken a few photos of the Painted Desert at the time.
However, yesterday I took 40+ photos. I need some time to pick out the 10-12 best photos for 1 or 2 posts. Also, there's some rain/snow headed this way early next week, so I want to move to a lower elevation by Sunday afternoon.
Was forced to boondock [or, dry camp] last night because I couldn't locate a campground and my gas tank was almost empty. This morning I noticed snow on the mountains to the west, which I believe were mentioned in one of the displays yesterday as the San Francisco Mtns north of Flagstaff. [Click once or twice to zoom in on the mtns directly behind the building in the center of the photo.]
