Dozens of huge boulders looked just like this one, with scores of images carved on top of each other. This pictograph site near Laughlin was one of the most prolific I’ve ever visited. Here’s one of them trying to steal my cousin’s soul. While there are a number of cool animals to see, the wolves were by far the best. On our last day we went to a place called “Bearizona” in Williams, AZ, which lets you drive through various animal habitats in your car. I *think* this is Bell Rock, as seen from the top of Cathedral Rock. Both of us chose to visit this quiet place centuries apart, but likely for the same reasons of tranquility and beauty. I really like the solitude of the desert, so whenever I encounter native desert art I get this great feeling of camaraderie with the people who made them. (Hopefully you’ll have a more interesting sunset than I did.) I strongly recommend that you make this hike at least once in your life. With the help of a cane (and my brother and cousin helping me through some tough spots), I made a painful hike to the top of Cathedral Rock in Sedona. Being metal and relatively steep, it was one of the best slide related experiences I’ve had since I was a child. I think this picture of a giant dog on a dinosaur slide is probably the best photo I’ve ever taken. I shot a lot of pictures, but they’re kinda boring so I’ve included a small selection. An employee told me that it’s been put up for sale, so who knows if it’ll be around much longer. As I wrote previously, this place is so bad it’s awesome. The first stop on our trip was to Flintstone’s Bedrock City. Since I was limited, things were a little more boring than normal, but I still got a few photos to share. Unfortunately, due to an unscheduled, violent meeting between my foot and a wall at my apartment, I made the trip with a painful fracture. Over the Thanksgiving weekend I headed out to the Flagstaff and Sedona areas of Arizona. ![]()
