Sightseeing from the car or RV




Above from the Grand Canyon

For today:

WE travelers and vacationers can see some great sights by driving up close and walking a few hundred yards, then back to the car. Oh yes, you can see some great sights in barren lands, and we have enjoyed a good bit in those areas,






One such area is in Southern Utah. WE stopped by The Arches (above) and Canyonland. . Seeing such magnificent formations there can be enjoyed by thousands of tourists, because WE can drive there. That is the beauty of the Appalachian Trail, we saw what only a few people see. Take Jashua Tree. Ed shows sites on his hikes

Spare Parts and Pics: Water Dagger Petroglyph Revisited


which only the determined will see with their own eyes. Fortunately, that dude can catch them, and you feel sorta like you have been there. I will never be able to catch shots like a pro, but I do point and snap a lot. LOL

You will appreciate a desert area with hills when you see:

The Chiricahua Nat’l Monument near Benson AZ .


                                                            Balanced Rock

 I did appreciate this little known outside the area, site.

 

 Thanks for looking in again. We have found beauty all across this nation and in all the places we have visited in other countries.

Sherry and I even entered Mexico once, illegally. A kid in a pole boat took across the Rio Grande  and we visited a small village, not even big enough to get on a map.
That was a site let me tell you. It was our most interesting of all our jaunts into Mexico.

I thought you might enjoy a shorter entry with no gripes.  Nite y’all. Merry Christmas…

AGAIN, thank each of you for stopping by.  Having friends is important. I take pride in the fact that we have met you, even if it is on the internet.
