Today we made the drive from Winslow, Arizona to Glendale, Utah and it was breathtaking! A snow topped mountain loomed ahead as we approached Flagstaff, and as we turned north towards Utah the landscape changed and red rock hills and mountains started appearing. As we got further north the heights and the intricacies of rock formations increased and were striated with a variety of colors. Unbelievably beautiful. My personal rock collection, of which I have always been proud, pales in comparison!

We saw several roadside stands where Native Americans were selling jewelry and pottery and noted what was apparently their sad living situations dotting the hillsides.

We arrived at our campground in Glendale, Utah and were relieved that the sites were level and it was still light out! Planning on visiting Bryce Canyon , the town of Escalante, Zion National Park and a variety of other places of note in the area over the next few days. There is no  ATT phone service in the campground (or anywhere else close by), but we do have internet access!
