We got to Natural Bridges National Monument after driving through some crazy wind and dark storm clouds, and past some buildings that are somehow credited as a 'town' on the map. While the sun was shining when we pulled into the Visitor's Center, there were storm clouds in every direction but directly up. So we decided to drive the loop, take pictures of the bridges from the viewpoints and just find a hotel for the night...our camper had a hole in the canvas in one corner, so camping in a windy rainstorm was not really an option ;-)

| See the bridge down there? |

| And yet another... |

| And one more...this sky is SO misleading... |
The bummer was that this place if over 30 miles from the next place we could stay, so we decided not to come back the next day...but there is a really neat, level hike you can do down in this canyon to hike under all the bridges.
Naomi hated this place, she was so tired and hungry that she was in constant meltdown mode. Josh carried her out to one of the viewpoints, but it was so cold and windy she just whined the whole time. And when she was in her car seat she was not any happier. The only time she was happy? When we set up her little potty in one of the bathrooms and her and mommy got to pee at the same time...sorry if that's TMI for you, but we like to celebrate and remember the happy moments whenever we can ;-)
Off to find civilization and a roof to cover us for the night!
