    Looks like a great place to visit. Definitely won't be petrified to walk those trails 😉 All the trails have something unique to offer including all those roadside attractions. Sweet Tomatoes! ☺️🍅❤️

    Who needs petrified wood when you have roadside weeds that tickle the palm of your hand? 😂
    They all look amazing - all gorgeous! Nicely done!

    Really enjoyed this "travel guide" for PFNP! The pictures were beautiful and the narration was well-organized and easy to follow. Funny seeing your son walk through the roadside grass - kind of fun, but kind of scary!

      Thank you very much Randy! This is a park we liked a lot. That road is only for pedestrians only and is at the beginning of the Long Logs and Agate House Trails so it was completely safe 😊

      Ah ah funny you mention that, he actually went runny in the talk grass and we had a had time spotting him in there. More scary for us than for him!

    Excellent presentation of all the hikes. Whenever I watch your videos, I gain a lot of information. this time it was fascinating to see petroglyphs on the petrified logs. Humans were always fascinated by this I believe. I loved your little one enjoying the grass on the side of the road. Must be awesome hike all alone as a family. Beautiful pictures also in the video. Thanks for sharing, you have a wonderful day ahead my friends.

    Congratulations on hitting 900 subscribers! You guys have been working extra hard on your channel lately and I'm extremely happy for you! I love informative videos like this to watch before I visit some place. Ones that are made like this are hard to find but great when you can find them. I would have to say the Painted Desert and the Blue Mesa was my favorite in the Park. Really nice job on the video.
