Mesa Verde

To me this was the highlight of our trip. I've seen the towers of Tikal in Guatemaula and I think these ruins are just as neat. It really gives you an idea of how they lived.

It was really neat because it could be 120 degrees outside but under the rock it was 20 degrees cooler. It felt like air conditioning to us. Again we didn't have Air in our Motor home this day.

This area is so close to us I can't believe we haven't explored this more. We only had time to visit one ruin but there are several around the area to see. Plus next to Mesa Verde is the Ruins of the Ancients that can be explored as well. David and I definately want to go back down to see spend a week down there.
