Resting day

Today we are taking an extra day at Monument Valley just to rest. The tour of the valley was great yesterday but a long 8 hours. The Navajo have established a Navajo Tribal Park and other than a 17 mile hard pack dirt road the park has closed access except for commercial tours with Navajo guides. There was a great deal of hiking to ruins up slick rock, which Wm participated in. He even was up on top of an arch. I have tried to upload a picture of me that Wm took from the top of the arch, but the speed of this connection is very slow. Our favorite things besides all the arches was a visit in a hogan with an old (91) weaver woman and a set of three kokopeli (the flute player) petroglyphs. Maybe somewhere else we will get a stronger signal and be able to put up images again. Today we are going to an "Earth Spirit" multimedia production and then out to dinner, maybe for Navajo tacos.
