Betsy and I made our first trip out west in 2011.  Among the national parks we visited was Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona.  We found the badlands in the Blue Mesa portion of the park to be both forbidding and beautiful.

One thing about March is that you never know what the weather is going to be like.  It can be Winter one day and Spring the next.  Sometimes you can have both Winter and Spring on the same day.  The photo above, which I captured a few years ago does a pretty good job of capturing both seasons in one picture — ice covered branches against a beautiful blue sky.
