Ruining the Countryside

Here we are bundled up for the 50 degree rainy weather in NE Arizona. Selah and Casson in the Navajo Hogan. Tsegi Canyon, the view from Navajo National Monument. It was so rainy and windy that we decided not to hazard the hike down to the ruins. Walnut Canyon cliff dwellings, SE of Flagstaff. They just reopened this weekend. They've been closed since a huge rockslide took out the trails back in December. They say about 200 people at a time lived in these extensive dwellings.
The Grand Canyon International Hostel in Flagstaff. A great place to meet people from all over the world. This weekend we met Mary Jane from France, Lucy and Rose from Korea, Reid from Virginia, and a bunch of other people. Mary Jane's father was a prisoner of war for almost five years during WWI, and was freed in Austria by the Americans, so she just loves America.
