Travelogue

by Kathleen Alape Carpenter


In San Francisco's shoreline Crissy Field, a gem of a recreational site in the Presidio and part of the Golden Gate Recreational Area, you might catch a glimpse of "The Rock Man" as he patiently and meticulously creates rock towers that you have to see to believe. No tricks, no gum, no glue, no other support.

From Kanab, Utah, Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon are day trips. Each park is uniquely breathtaking.

With a thunderstorm in the distance, approaching from the South Rim, the usual haziness across the canyon was more pronounced. Humans on the rock formation in the right foreground provide perspective.
