The song Mexican Daydream is playing in the background. Somehow the music brings back memories of all the incredible Indian sites we have visited in the southwest. Think about being a native American wandering about. You get first pick on any place you want. Those people knew how to find the most amazing sites. Yesterday we visited the Sipes Wilderness area where there is an amazing site. The pottery shards there were astounding. Have never seen any collection displayed on the ground like it. Hundreds of pottery shards with designs to amaze. The location of the little place that may have had eight to fifteen families was like so many others, damn near perfect. The scenery could not be surpassed, and of course the game and water were both at the doorstep. The people who occupied these places could have had a very peaceful simple existence. Used to think when we first discovered it Calf Creek Canyon in Utah was the ultimate. It was an incredible canyon with a trout stream running down the middle, a waterfall with a wonderful pool above and below. Mule Canyon in Utah also has an unbeatable cliff dwelling with a natural swimming pool right out front. The natural places these people found and settled make you have great respect for their ability to live in harmony with nature.
