Tell about a family vacation trip.

When I was 7 or so years old we went down to Blanding to visit my Aunt and Uncle Lyman. (Velma and Kay, Mom's sister just younger than she.) Anyway while we were there Uncle Kay took us in Jeeps out to see a lot of the Indian Ruins that are around that area. We also went over into Colorado to see the famous ruins there at Mesa Verde National Park. I will always remember the excitement at finding drawings up on the rocks and cliffs where it seemed no one could go. Later I found out that there were some small ones in Duchesne near where the canal left the river. Looking at them they seemed to be where no one could reach them but after climbing up there we found a narrow ledge that led out to the paintings. It then became clear to me how they had done those in the four corners area where we had visited them with Uncle Kay.
