Thursday Karla and I arrived at Mesa Verde National Park where we boondocked for a couple days. Mesa Verde National Park was created to preserve the archeological heritage of the Ancestral Pueblo people, both atop the mesas and in the cliff dwellings. About 550 AD, people living in the Four Corners region decided to move onto the Mesa Verde. For over 700 years these people flourished eventually building elaborate stone communities in the sheltered alcoves of canyon walls.
Karla and I spent the days hiking, climbing, and exploring the rugged terrain. We experienced many vast overlooks, shuffled past many dramatic shear cliffs, and eventually reached the largest petroglyph display known in the park. While strenuous, the days were invigorating!
I hope this blog post finds you happy and healthy. We look forward to seeing each and everyone of you soon. And as always, (we are) coming to a driveway near you. Take care!
