Sand Island is a recreation area under the authority of the Bureau of Land Management. We stopped there to see the Native American petroglyphs on the bluffs above the San Juan River. We walked the trail shown in the photo and found the petroglyphs in various areas along the bluffs, very clear and impressive, some of them shown in the inset photo.

While in Arches and Canyonlands we met a man who suggested stopping to see the petroglyphs at Sand Island, Utah. We did stop on our way south and walked along the San Juan River and found the petroglyphs there, some of them shown in the photo. The petroglyphs are found on the bluffs above the river over a nearly 100 meter area and are very clear and impressive.

Photographed near the Rio Grande in the Hot Springs area of Big Bend these Indian pictographs are easily accessible though some of them have been damaged. What they represent I have no idea.

One of the things we did while in Michigan was go with other family members to ArtPrize in downtown Grand Rapids. I didn't take a lot of photos, but this was one of them.

Pieces of blown glass back lit in the Seattle Glassblowing Studio. The colors and textures of the various pieces were spectacular and the prices far beyond my reach, but with the permission of the proprietors we spent a good deal of time there taking pictures.

These petroglyphs are preserved at the Ginko Petrified Forest State Park interpretative center in Vantage, Washington. They were among the few that were rescued in 1963 when the Wanapum Dam was completed and thousands of these petroglyphs were drowned by the rising waters behind the dam.

This is one of my wife's photos from Bloedel Conservatory. I believe the Macaw's name is Art. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2013/02/birds-flowe...
