This morning we headed a few miles down the road to Monument Valley. We had debated on whether to take the tour or not. It’s in an open truck, sort of like the Kilimanjaro Ride at Animal Kingdom. Actually the whole drive is a lot like that, minus the animals. The roads are dirt and rock. When I say rock, I mean big chunks of rock that tosses you around. The speed limit is 15 mph but at times we were going 5 mph. The road is 15 miles according to the brochure and 14 1/2 miles are rough. So, we should have taken the tour.
But even though the rode was rough it is a beautiful part of the country. We loved all the formations. There are Native Americans living in the park and I’m a little envious of being able to wake up to that every day.
There are people here from all over the country. We’ve seen folks from Alaska, New York, Colorado, and Florida just in our campground. Tomorrow we’ll be in Silt, Colorado for a quick stop on the way to Denver and a ballgame.
Our adventure today was a good one and I’m blessed to be on this journey at all. I hope your journey today was a good one.
