California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada and Utah are huge states, each bigger than many countries. This means that traveling in the Southwest takes time, more time than the typical American 2 weeks annual vacation. The strange and unpredictable events of 2001 gave us a chance for an open-ended road trip, and our tiny trailer provided a lightweight and economical way to shelter, comfort and hot meals. Our interests are widely varied from geology, astronomy, archeology, prehistoric to recent US history. Nowhere else are the skies so clear and wide, the rocks so exposed, the land both untouched and blasted by atomic weapons, the human history both mysterious and obvious. These are some of the images of our trip. We hope you enjoy them. maps and photos (upload 1) » (upload 2) (upload 3)
