Today, I woke up to the iPod quacking at me. My mom was already up (as usual) and I was not ready to get out of bed. After an un-filling breakfast, we drove near the places we had planned on visiting yesterday before they closed. We went to a small art museum with some cool paintings, and a science museum with... fractals. What are fractals? I'm not sure. They are cool computer generated pattern art. Just look at the picture and you might understand. Apparently it has a lot to do with math. Yuck. Then we spent the rest of the day driving and hanging out at the City of Rocks State Park. It's a large oval area of huge and small rocks everywhere. You can stand under some and look up, and you can climb to the top of the hills and look down at the "city". The rocks look like buildings, hence the name. Not only were the rocks cool, so was everything else. There were beautiful cacti, speedy jack-rabbits, neon-orange-moths, and camouflaged lizards. (Notice my adjective skills, which were taught by Mr. Ford while I was gone!) We couldn't get any pictures of adult jack-rabbits, since they were so fast. We didn't do much after that besides eating, driving, and solving murders before Monk reveals who did it. Incase you were wondering, hotel TVs never have good shows on. We've been continually watching AFV and the occasional Wipeout, both of which I find entertaining, but my mom doesn't. Incase you were wondering. Right now we are in Tucson, (pronounced without the C) and tomorrow we drive to Scottsdale.
