A view of the canyon
In front of Spider Rock
The White House Ruins down in the Canyon (because of the white house at the top that doesn't really look white in this picture)
Turquoise and silver jewelry crafted by the Navajo
Aug 23 - Aug 25
After visiting the Petrified Forest we continued on to spend a couple nights in Chinle, the largest town in the Navajo Nation. Aaron's mom worked here for about a year when she was working as a traveling nurse. It has been on our list of things to do with her so she could show us around the reservation and the near-by Canyon de Chelly (pronounced shay) and the timing finally worked out. They offer jeep tours through the bottom of the canyon, or take your own vehicle with a guide (if you think it can handle the sand). August volunteered to take his H3 for the tour-a highlight of the Arizona trip for all of us!
