The Jasper Forest

This is my kind of country. Some of my earliest memories are of exploring the clay hills of the Colorado Plateau. I feel more at home in these hills than any other place on the planet. In this panorama, you will have to click on the photo to see the petrified wood. This is the so-called Jasper Forest of the Petrified Forest National Park in north central Arizona. The Park is only 45 minutes or so by automobile from where I spent all of my early summers. I wonder what kind of person I would have been had I grown up with green grass and trees?

  1. You would have been the same person, but your pictures would be greener.
