Trip to the Great Southwest

Filed under: Uncategorized — gbock @ 5:11 pm

Jen and I took a five day tour of the Southwest, or according to our AAA map “Indian Country” which I’m sure is the official title of the area.

Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Navajo Nation, Monument Valley, Zion National Park.

Grand Canyon

What a hole in the ground…

Monument Valley

“You too can ruin a majestic view by calling 1-800-RV4RENT!”

Ancient Hopi Ruins ironically located at the Navajo National Monument

Cool Neon Sign located outside Zion National Park in Southern Utah

By far the the place that I wanted to the most was Monument Valley, mostly because of Sergio Leone and John Ford films like Once Upon a Time in the West and The Searchers. Growing up in Iowa, you just assume that all little Western towns were built in grandiose landscapes…well let me tell you that they are.

This has nothing to do with my trip:

Great photos, social commentary and humorous? Someone give this artist a grant!
