Today's goal was to rack up as many points as possible for the Pic Your Park contest. I mean... to see our great United States! Before we could embark on our journey, we made a pit stop to place a $10 bet that the Phillies will win the 2018 World Series. Here's hoping! First, we explored Lake Mead National Recreation Area and attempted to visit the Hoover Dam. I refused to pay for parking, so we continued on our way. Next stop was Walnut Canyon, which unfortunately was closed when we arrived, but that didn't stop us from taking a picture and collecting those sweet, sweet points. We jumped back in the car and headed to Sunset Crater National Monument. This was one park that we would not have visited if it weren't for the contest, but I am so glad that we did. We had a great time exploring this desserted park and enjoyed a thunderstorm off in the distance. We ended the day at Wupatki National Monument. As dusk was setting in, so was that thunderstorm that we were admiring at a distance. We had to make this visit short, but we definitely enjoyed the views!
