Dinosaurs! (and chalk!)

Backtracking a little here.  I've driven from Colorado to Arizona several times even before my move.  Every time I give a second look to a sign just outside of Tuba City that says, "Dinosaur Tracks."  But, I've never taken the time to stop.  On the way home from my second moving trip down here, I decided it was time to stop.  It was early enough that I could leave Moki in the car.


John was the wonderful, Navajo Indian who gave me the "tour."  He was incredibly knowledgeable about the dinosaurs and the area.  He pointed to a small village close to the dinosaur tracks as his home.  Tucked into the hills, I had never noticed it before.  I asked him lots of questions, including some inappropriate ones (after an apology), and he answered them all.  I love dinosaurs and this was a great experience.

Look at the outline of rocks for the t-rex footprint.

And oh yeah . . . I went to a chalk fest in downtown Prescott.  Pics of a chalk artist, and me with Smokey the Bear.
