Wildflowers At 70 MPH: New Mexico
With the spirit of Jack Kerouac never far from the surface, my wife and I jumped all over the opportunity to return to California. Across the bottom of Mississippi, up through Louisiana and into Texas, highways were lined with sunflowers, varieties of goldenrod, Mistflower, and golden asters. And once we got into Oklahoma the most abundant wildflower was Maximilian Sunflower, a gorgeous species top heavy with blossoms. Such variety and abundance surprised me. After such bounty, I thought, New Mexico would surely be a barren, dusty landscape. After all, it was October. What else could possibly be blooming? Lots. Lots and lots.

Fort Churchill, Nevada (Part 2)
There were many forts across the west, some military and some for trading. Fort Churchill was strictly to provide a military presence to protect travellers to and from the gold and silver rush areas near Lake Tahoe and over the Sierras into California from Indians. The fort was in place for several years before the threat was diminished and the transcontinental railroad ended the need for wagon trains.

Canyon de Chelley: Ancient Footsteps
Archealogical evidence shows native peoples lived in this long sandstone canyon for nearly 5,000 years. Pictographs, petroglyphs and crumbling cliff ruins remain of the people who once made their homes here.
