Four Corners

With one location, we touched Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico. At Four Corners, these four states converge on a single point.

I wasn’t expecting much from this side trip except to be able to add two more states to our count, but we actually had a pretty good time talking to other travellers and admiring the Navajo arts and crafts that were being sold. I found some cool gifts for family and there was this Navajo craftsman who made arrowheads on the spot for you. The really cool part was that he used these unique stones for the arrowheads. I picked up this blue arrowhead that shimmers in the sunlight.

Just a quick dip into Colorado on our way out from Four Corners.

Cool Road Signs

P and I will see a lot of pretty cool road signs along our trip. It’s a shame we can’t share them all with you because often they’ll be alongisde a highway we’re just zipping along, and there aren’t always a convenient place for us to circle back and pull off to take the picture. Here’s one we saw going from New Mexico into Colorado. I’m not quite sure which sign came first, or if they’re meant to be a joint instruction. Should we buckle up because there are cows running around at 65 mph? What the heck are cows doing running around free in the desert between New Mexico and Colorado anyway?
