A nice view just off the northbound freeway one hour north of Phoenix.

A small piece of petrified wood beside a rose bush in Tuba city.

Cactuses in the back yard of our Arizonian friends.

Another view, closer to Grand Canyon.

Cactuses along the freeway north of Phoenix.

A beautiful home, just off Grand Canyon. Note the two cars to the right. I wonder what their story is?

Some views along the eastbound way from Grand Canyon to Monument Valley.

Black lava sand forming hills.

Vegetation specially adopted to this black lava. No dirt, just lava that cannot hold water very well.

Some species grow in lava, others don't.

Heading towards Monument Valley. Red rocks appearing at the horizon.

Dino tracks. Pretty old ones - and new pretty ones.

The blow hole is blowing constantly all day, while building up air pressure inside huge caves during the night.

The magnificient Grand Canyon. A small river has, over the years, cut its way down through the ground.
