Canyon DeChelly

Yesterday we left Monument Valley just after 10 and headed for Canyon de Chelly in Arizona. We are dancing back and forth across the state line as we try and visit the National Parks in this area.

This was our view out our livingroom window as we ate breakfast yesterday in Monument Valley. It is a place worth visiting if you are in the area.

We even had some folks in a tent, camping nearby. The temperature dropped to 0* C last night. That's cold for tent camping.

Highway 191 is an interesting highway. It runs through the Hopi Indian Reservation.  In all our travels we've never seen domestic animals calmly eating grass at the side of the road as cars and trucks roared by. We saw horses, sheep, goats, cattle all on their own, oblivious of the traffic as we drove towards Canyon DeChelly. So, if you are coming this way, get here before it gets dark. Not sure what the animals do once the sun goes down.

Safe travels and thanks for dropping by.
