Petrified Forest National Park Photos

Now that I'm home from Arizona, I uploaded the photos I took with my Canon camera of Petrified Forest National Park.

The park is off Interstate 40 and is easily accessible. It is not one of the larger parks, but it is interesting nonetheless.

Here's a sampling:
