Kris Kristofferson Concert in Durango, CO

Kris Kristofferson concert was our 32nd Anniversary to each other. The guy can write songs but he's definitly no Waylon, Willie or any of the other singer "boys."

The dancers costumes were wonderful. Members of the Ice Mountain Dance Group from San Jun Pueblo, NM in their eagle dance costumes and some members of the Aztec dance group in their very ornate costumes pose for Ted.

Bar D Wranglers put on a great western stage show with songs of cowboys & the old west and stories for the whole family. 

Some people had to walk so the Bar D train could make it up the hill.

Sunday afternoon at Vallecito Resevoir 20 miles from Durango. 

Driving down 550 towards Durango we spotted this cow elk trying to figure out how to cross this busy highway. She eventually ran back into the field on here side of the road. Several have been hit and killed so this time she made the right choice. 

We have seen some strange sites during our travels in the Four Corners area. Exactly WHERE are we? 

This one is called Stronghold House. It's right on the edge of the canyon wall. This is actually the upper story of a large pueblo, which now lies in rubble, built on the slope below.  

It's called the Twin Towers. circa 1000AD. You gotta wonder how they made the mortar as this area was bone dry. 

The entrance to Hovenweep National Monument. Truly out in the middle of nowhere. Site of an early (1000AD ) Navaho civilization. Our knowledge of Navaho - was expanded including how to say "hello" in the native tongue - ya' at' eeh. So........ ya'at'ehh ya'll. 

We encountered these range horses out for a stroll enroute to Hovenweep. We had to wait until they crossed in front of us and they were in no hurry - they owned the road. 

From the four corners we headed West on Utah route 162 towards Hovenweep National Park. Not much skiing going on in this rather dry part of the country although the altitude was about 4600+ feet above sea level. 

We're at the Four Corners National Monument. The area is run by the Navaho people and they charge$3.00 per person to see this marker. No charge to be photographed on it. Ted is standing in both Colorado and Utah while Jan is located in Arizona and New Mexico. "So near and yet so far away." Note how dry and desolate the surrounding area is.  

The story on Shiprock - was posted at the Four Corners Monument area. The shiprock was seen from the highway and is a 1700 foot geological monument
