Hello All,
Well, we did go to the Petrified Forest on our way to the Grand Canyon on Sunday afternoon. If you don't know what petrified wood is, it's wood that has been mineralized and turned into rock. This petrified wood is beautiful colors, pink, black, red, white and sometimes purple. Here's a little more about the forest from the National Park's we
bsite: "With one of the world's largest and most colorful concentrations of petrified wood, multi-hued badlands of the Painted Desert, historic structures, archeological sites, native grassland, and displays of over thousand-year-old fossils, this is a surprising land of scenic wonders and fascinating science." We were there for about three hours and got to see many beautiful pieces of petrified wood. Pictures? We got 'em!
