Painted by God himself

The last six miles of the Petrified Forest Road takes you through the Painted Desert. We were very lucky, again.. as it just rained. Why would that be lucky?

Well it is said that the painted desert comes to life after the rain. The colors are more vibrant, etc. I've been here a couple of times and this time I was shocked at the beauty.


This is a photo of the painted desert and a thunderstorm above it. If you think this photo is awesome, you should see it in person. Its a 28 mile road to drive through the park @ 35 mph, but let me tell you. It is a breath taker, and pray for rain if you visit it.

Look at this photo above? Can you see where God's brush was used? Reds, golds, browns, whites, its amazing. I feel lucky to be able to see this.


Any of these photos could easily be postcards, not because we took them, but because its so easy to take a good picture here.
