Chaco Canyon is home to some great Anasazi ruins.
Anna Lee and Jerry--walking friends who introduced me to a new walking program called
The Spirit of Walking (American Volkssport Association) which maps out 10K trails in cities and parks across the country. Check out their website at www.ava.org.
Jerry and Anna Lee also do the blog for the caravan. It's a lot like mine, but check it out at www.landofenchantmentii.blogspot.com.
We even found a piece of pottery shard (but we put it back!)

The petroglyphs were unusual. I wonder what story they told.
A volcano plug that has eroded to a beautiful butte and had become a sacred place to the Anasazi as a solstice marker.

The pictures of the ruins are really cool. I remember seeing something similar to that when I was little, but it was in the side of a big hill, do you remember that? It was different, but these pictures remind me of that.
Mesa Verde National Park in southern Colorado was a great vacation for us when you were little, Caryn. We climbed up the steps to the cliff dwellings and then in and out of the connected pueblos and down ladders into the kivas. Dad wondered how they kept their little kids from falling over the edges of the cliffs.
