Trees Across the Country







So the first gigantic tree is at a rest stop in WV. The next kind of ugly one is in Arkansas, or maybe Oklahoma. Those 2 states kind of blurred together. Neither of them was very pretty. At least the parts we drove through. Reed did like the Ozarks though. We did have some stops other than rest area but the funny thing is, the kids will probably remember climbing trees along the way as well as they remember anything. The "rock tree" was just so neat I had to take a picture. It's in Baldelier National Monument in New Mexico. It was a GREAT stop. Ancient cliff dweller ruins. We spent several hours and hiked 3 miles. Climbed a gazillion steps up a very steep cliff to a religious site. Great way to start our day. The last 2 photos are trees in Arches National Park. Another great morning. We could have spent all day here. And it was the perfect time of year. Cool and sunny.
