There's a Hole in my Rock!

I find it much more fun to travel for business with someone than all alone. In the evenings, its fantastic to have a dinner companion, and exploring a new city is just that much more enjoyable.

On a recent week-long trip to Arizona, a colleague and I spent an afternoon exploring some of the rock formations in the area. We found this phenomenon at Papago Park - a naturally eroded rock formation of arkosic conglomerate sandstone called Hole-in-the-Rock.


We climbed to the top, and enjoyed some amazing late-afternoon views of Phoenix, including this one:


How cool is that?

Very cool! Arizona is definitely on our list of places to visit...but maybe in the winter months! ;)
