Petrified Forest

 we were able to quickly pack up our trailer and headed out of Albuquerque. As we left, we could see the balloons off in the distance. It was a nice sendoff. We drove to A loves where we emptied our gray water. The drive to the petrified forest was a beautiful drive as The scenery was quite interesting. It’s a lot of spacious fields and sagebrush and lots of red canyons. The petrified forest is a very interesting national park. It’s a 28 mile drive and there are three sections. We drove from the north to the south; The top section is red, the middle is blue and purple, and the bottom is mostly blue. There are 12 Mark spots along the way and we got them out at each of them. Can’t say that I had a favorite spot as they were all very interesting, it’s also called the painted desert here, especially at the top. Where are there are so many layers of different colors as you drive south. You see more of the petrified forest with lots of logs laying around the park has been very well preserved as there were many photos from 100 years ago compared to today and you could see that the landmarks were still the same .
