Route 89A was a great drive - we went through many beautiful and interesting places. The first was Lee's Ferry - where in the 1880's Pioneers crossed the Colorado river on a Ferry for a fee. This area was the only place within 100 miles where the canyon walls were low enough for wagon trains to cross.

Flo & Cheryl 'hold up' one of the Balancing Rocks that we saw on the Route 89A drive.

Rte 89A brought us through beautiful and interesting areas.
Yes that's a boulder sitting on that house. This house was built by a woman in 1930 when her car broke down here because she loved the area so much she decided to build this little house around this fallen rock.
Blanche & Lucy rest a bit while visiting the Navajo Bridge - another great visit on Rte 89A - a hot day for puppies running around.
Blanche & Lucy and their best friend Luey had a great time on this stop-over.
The drive on 89A brought us through the Navajo Reservation and seeing the Navajo Bridge project.
Sign for the Navajo Bridge Project.
These are the 2 bridges in the Navajo Bridge project - a drive-over bridge and a pedestrian bridge.
This is one of 2 bridges build over the Colorado River. The bridge you see is the 'drive-over' bridge & I am shooting from the Pedestrian bridge.
The Colorado River flows beneath the Navajo Bridge.
These are the Vermillion Cliffs - seen on Rte 89A
