Today's lesson:
If you happen to be in the southwest during monsoon season,
bring some waterproof clothing! About 4pm the thunderstorms
kick in, and if you happen to be under one it can be quite damp. Boy, can thunder echo in a canyon!

Everyone else? Hmm...
Here is Spider Rock, impressive sister spires which stand 880 ft tall. According to Navajo legend, the Spider Woman lived here and taught the nation to weave. (Haven't I see a jeep featured on one of these spires? Yes, you may recognize this rock as the site where Madison Avenue filmed a couple of 4x4 truck commercials.)
