Stay off the roof

A dinosaur was here .... see the sign.
Dad is standing in the center of a natural arch but mom didn't quite capture the top of the arch. It's the Wilson Arch just South of LaSal, UT.
Following the rain at Canyonlands there were puddles like this one reflecting the Sun ...
This sign says it all .......... "Keep off the roof"! If the Navajo Tribe deems it imortant enough to post a sign this big at their visitors center in Monument Valley then it must be a true message so adhere to it :-).
It was a rainy day at Canyonlands but we had a wonderful time seeing the incredible sights there. If you haven't been there you need to go. Mom took this picture capturing a torential downpour that looked as if water was being dumped by "huge" bucketfulls.
This picture was taken at Grand View in Canyonlands ... and it was a "Grand View"!
Taking a break. The Park Service placed a bench under a sandstone canopy with a view. Loved it!

Looks like a great trip! Did you do that on the way to spokane? If only we would have had some Navajos around we might have stayed off the roof in IF!

You guys do like to travel. I think we all got that from you. I have always been surprised when talking to friends how many of them never leave their home state. To me it just seems normal to get and see the world.
