Ron: I really enjoyed the black hills, Mount Rushmore seemed So insignificant, almost like graffiti. Bringing form back into the Conversation, when traveling the four corners region, a region of extremes, I really liked traveling through the canyons and desert , the rock formations reminded me of the temples of India, rock Croppings took on all sorts of form going through marble canyon. I wondered how much natural formations influenced our perception. At the time it seemed most certain we mimicked the canyons in our structures.
Being alone in the vast expanse was daunting. I lived on ravioli and Beer. Stayed at state parks where I could and rest stops and motel Parking lots when I couldn't. Noticed the Navajo weren't overly friendly. [Krimel] I didn't know much about the Navaho when we went there. I tried to get a crash course by reading Tony Hillerman novels. He remains my main source of info on them. If you think the Navaho are unfriendly try a drive across Alligator Alley in South Florida. I believe the Seminole are still at war with the US and they kind of act like it. On our Indian trip we borrowed a 14 foot travel trailer from a friend. We were gone almost six weeks with three kids. We stayed in a few state parks and lots of commercial campgrounds. What was strange was that at the end of the trip nobody was all that eager to go home.
