Death Valley and Red Rock Conservation Area

One of the hottest places we have been
 
 
One very HOT day
Picture taken at the Visitors Center at the lowest point in the USA



Barren Land as far as you can see

Interesting Plateau
A very pretty place to take a leisurely trip through

Some of the wildlife in the area

Some of the mountains in the Conservation area



This is why it is called Red Rock

Grand Canyon Day 2 Sunrise





Got to the Canyon at 5:00AM waiting for the sunrise, This was the first rays of the sun I caught










The Canyon starting to brighten up




As John Denver's song said;

 "Good morning Sunshine"













The colors were unreal first thing in the morning










The sun getting stronger with each passing minute











If you blink your eyes you may have missed one of the changes taking place as the sun rises
























You never know who you might meet at the visitors center in the Canyon



 



 Took a little trip on Route 66











Made it to California after a minor setback with our rental car










Found a great place for camping;.. you interested??
