We did not realize the Painted Desert was part of the
Petrified Forest National Park.
And we did not realize the Painted Desert was another
Badlands.
Silly us...we thought South & North Dakota had the
only Badlands.
We know the SD Badlands are better than the ND Badlands.
We were surprised to learn there are 5 national badland areas:
ND, SD, AZ, Bryce Canyon UT & Death Valley CA.
Now we have seen 3 of the 5.
Tomorrow night...Petrified Forest
Magnificent scenery Coleen. Super you were able to take a side trip. That's what it is all about. We had another 12 hour drive, but only have 5 hours tomorrow. We are in Hammond Indiana tonight. Safe travels.
