I’ve never paid close attention to petroglyphs, but while hiking around in the Petroglyph National Monument I came across several in different places. The problem is many looked modern and faked to me, but, since I’m not an expert, I can’t really say. The petroglyphs in the first photo I suspect are old because of the the patina. They are on an almost flat, high surface so they were pretty subtle. I found the petroglyphs in the second photo just plain interesting and included the view to the south to give them a sense of place. The last photo is a yucca seed pod still on the stem.

My cold was worse this morning, and I really had to work to drag myself up to take Stretch in for his monthly blood work. They said his BUN and creatinine are the same, but he’s looking really good, otherwise. We will continue on the same regimen, and take him in again next month.
