I was just wondering if anyone is near or going to be near Petrified Forest park in ne Arizona.

I have a 20 ac parcel out there in the middle of the park I bought a few years ago and have never seen. I thought how neat if one of our travelers was in the area anyhow and could take some pictures for me.

There is a park road that goes south from rte 66 all the way down to what was once the A,T and SF railroad, which has a whistle stop at Adamana. There's a tourist viewpoint about halfway down, sort of a loop in the road, that's just the other side of the property. I could give some coordinates if anyone was interested.

You could even use the 'facilities' while you are there!

Several years ago I spotted this strange land anomaly in NE Arizona. Interestingly, the visual seems to persist no matter what altitude she's viewed from (using Google maps). Sometimes we see things in the clouds, but they are lost when viewed from a different perspective. This isn't like that.

I often wondered if this was carved by some ancient off-worlders, sorta like the Nazca lines in Peru. Up close, it's forested canyons, hills, rocks, but then again...

Just an mildly interesting tidbit about Arizona, I guess.

I was just in that area I have 44 acres about 15 miles south of there. On my place the flora is prarie grass and Very large Junipers (some 20' round and 15' tall), alot of the area at the park is just prarie grass. Hope this helps. Oh it rained every evening while I was there with beautiful lightening displays. Joe
