We get to the Petrified Forest in New Mexico and it is HOT HOT !
Look at all them blocks of Petrified wood .( solid Money )
Take a look at what the wood looks like when you split it . NICE !
Check out the Huge bone that was found in the petrified area.

Here we are getting ready to enter the park . We really shouldnt be taking picture here but But But awell
Monkey see monkey do . All smiles
We went to check out the Museum
Do Not Feed the Animals !!!
Huge pieces of petrified wood hundreds and hundreds of years old
Just one sample of the many pieces that can be found in this park . There are check points where they check cars and other vehicles for the presios petrfied wood . So we could not pickup any pieces.
More goods
Saul just thinks we are paying attention HA!
We are get ready to go on a hike and boy it is HOT
The Park Ranger told us that the reason the wood is where it is because of a flood many years ago .
Hot Hot
Rick and our bikes in the background
Our Bikes in th hot parking lot
Huge log and in tack
This piece is being held by concrete because it was struck by lighting and seperated it.
This is what this area looked like back in that time .
We are on our way out of the petrified forest

Stilll in New mexico but know we are where a meteir hit and left a huge creater in te groung . we have our hand on a piece that was found in that area .
This is what the falling object did tthe earth .
Getting up close to the creater
You cant see it but there is an American Flag in the middle of the creater
Taking five in the HOT dry sun
Getting brave ! not me I will take the pictures
It has been a long day but productive .
Time to mount up and do more things !!

We have been thru New Mexico so many times and have never visited the Petrified Forest National Park.....looks like a very interesting place to see. We will have to some by someday in the winter or fall when it is not so hot. Great Pictures!
