Yesterday, we toured Through the petrified Forest national Park. Was a fascinating experience of looking at 2 million years history.
According to scientists this geographical area used to be the same latitude as the country of Panama about 200 million years and there were dense forests rivers similar to the Amazon River area
We explored a couple trails and shot a few photographs of some of the huge blocks that were left over when volcanoes exploded and buried them in a fashion similar to Mount St. Helens.
Now we are in Albuquerque area for Thanksgiving. Here are some photos.
