Petrified Forest and Meteor Crater

Tuesday we drove out to Petrified Forest (lots of old Triassic trees) and Meteor Crater, the first confirmed meteorite impact on earth.

Jason has a whole folder of squirrel photos!

Doesn't look like a fossil does it?

All the brown stuff is petrified wood!

Lovely colours... Meghan, I got you some for jewelry making!
Serena checking out the Agate House, a Pueblo (reconstruction) made entirely of petrified wood!
