Spring 2014

Northwest Trip
The long awaited trip to the northwest was finally made. Several goals were motivation for the trek. To visit Oregon where some ancestors had pioneered, the addition of solar power to Tardis, and seeing Glacier National Park were among them. Along the way were many other noteworthy places.

New Mexico
The first week in April, I headed out from New Mexico with a couple of places on the way that I wanted to see before leaving the state. Gila Cliff Dwellings, Silver City art galleries, and the Catwalk were on my list.

Arizona
Then it was on through northeast Arizona for a few more historic and notable stops. Among them were the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert, Wupatki pueblo ruins, and the Vermillion Cliffs. Plans were to camp on the north rim of the Grand Canyon. But, it was still snowed-in and not yet open when I was passing.

Utah
A short jog into the southwest corner of Utah took me on an eagerly anticipated visit to Zion National Park. Wow!
