After leaving the park I headed into Holbrook where I'm spending the night. I had noticed a quilt shop on my way through this morning. So, I stopped at Painted Desert Quilts. I found some old Alexander Henry prints that I had to buy.
Then I visited one of the many Rock Shops that I've seen all over this area. They all have dinosaur statues in front, but this one had more than most.
Inside the yard there were piles of petrified rocks, from large to small. I looked through one until I found two more rocks to take home. I asked about where they come from and was told they come from private lands. I had noticed a lot of homes in the area have lots of petrified tree rocks in their yards as decorations.
Holbrook is a small town. There is a great old motel that features teepee rooms with vintage cars parked in front. You just don't see these kind of places anymore. They were fun.
I bought a salad (and ice cream because I earned it) for dinner and went to the hotel where I had reservations.
