The Story Of Time, Written In The Earth In some of the most barren and arid lands of North America, once huge forests flourished. Ancient crocodiles and strange amphibious monsters prowled through the swamplands.
Now the remains of magnificent trees roll around the desert floor, transmuted by time and the waters in which they lay for eons, waters rich with silica. Forever beautiful, rainbow colored chunks of rock they will remain, now exposed to the relentless sun. |

Loved the hoodoo's and the petrified rock house built by the Anasazi...very ingenious! Enjoyed your tips very much, Wendy. This looks like it would be a great place to visit... | gilabrand Fri May 11, 2007 06:24 UTC
Taking rocks home - I have a tip like that on my Israel page. Except I just said pick them up, not buy them...LOL | victorwkf Mon Jul 24, 2006 05:50 UTC
