Snapshot Saturday, May 17

It has been quite a week, exhausting but fun for the most part. I'm still running on fumes from our big trip to New Mexico. Below are a few pictures taken at Tent Rocks National Monument and Bandelier National Monument. It was exhilarating to be out in nature witnessing such beautiful and interesting sites.

Here I am on the trail between two huge rocks (Tent Rocks, NM)
Can you believe the color of the sky? (Tent Rocks, NM)
The rock formations were so interesting and odd. (Tent Rocks, NM)

We were the first people at the park that morning so we had the top to ourselves. (Tent Rocks, NM)
The trail was more arduous than we were led to believe but I made it up and down without complaining.
Here I am in front of one of the caves at Bandelier National Monument.

A replica of what the dwelling places probably looked like built into the rock walls. (Bandelier, NM)
In this spot several for hundreds of years was a vast network of homes, almost like condominiums. (Bandelier, NM)
