Early this morning we left Kanab and moved on to the next phase of our vacation. We drove through Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and stopped in Cortez, Colorado. Along the way we visited Monument Valley, drove through a sandstorm in Arizona and New Mexico and dodged a herd of tumbleweeds that rolled across the highway in front of us. The unexpected highlight of the day was seeing three California Condors at Navajo Bridge. The California Condor population was down to 22 birds in 1982 and now there are less than 400 birds with less than 200 of those in the wild.

In Monument Valley we thought we had made a wrong turn and ended up at the Auburn football field.
