Last night we arrived in Las Vegas, and today we began our two-day mini roadtrip to see the Grand Canyon and other sights. Today's main event was stopping at Valley of Fire State Park, which is about an hour outside of Vegas and on our way to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. I'm not sure why this place isn't more famous, because it really is amazing. Have you seen Total Recall? If so, you've seen this place. It's "Mars" in the movie. The rock formations are so ridiculous it's hard to believe they occur naturally. My favorite part was that aside from two particular places in the park, you're free to climb any of the rocks, which I most certainly did. The park way surpassed our expectations and was a great start to our trip.
Cool - I've never really heard of that park but we did see "Total Recall." Glad you and the fam are having a great time so far. What a memorable 10th anniversary celebration.
