We're finding that the places we're staying along the way are as much fun as our "destination" stops. We spent the night in Bluff, Utah, not too far from the Four Corners, Monument Valley & Navajoland. This little town has a beautiful river, rock art sites and a reconstructed Mormon settlement. The travel books we read mostly talked about the Four Corners area being- besides a gateway to tons of national parks and monuments- a cowboy region. That may be, but from what we picked up in the little time we were here- it also has a growing arts & music scene. (And a great community paper). These little stops are turning out to be the gems of our trip. Above is a picture of Grace and Lucy playing in a covered wagon at the museum, and also one of a petroglyph in a state campground along the San Juan River.
