5/15/2008 - Indian Creek - Day 5

We got up this morning slowly. It was cooler and windier. We watched all the birds flying up to the camper which acted like a perfect bird blind. A Lark Bunting was busily gathering my hair off the ground to line his/her nest. Very neat.

Given the weather, we opted for a rest day and hiked over to the Anasazi Indian ruins. This was an amazing place. We climbed up to them (ack my quadriceps!) and hung around admiring them.











We had lunch at the ruins, then climbed back down and wandered around for miles looking at birds (saw a Western Tanager!) and the beautiful walls.



The evening was spent again enjoying the view, the solitude, good food and a cat rolling enthusiastically in the dirt.
