Bandelier National Monument - August 2016

As they drove into Bandelier National Monument, a breathtaking canyon opened up below the road. Harrison told her the cliff face was full of caves where the Indians once made their homes high above the canyon floor.

"You see dozens of them here," Harrison said when they came upon a grazing doe and her fawn. "They're practically tame."

Harrison crossed the creek and veering into an open field of golden grasses. He squinted into the light. "There's a cave up there."

"I see lots of caves," Kelsey said.

"Look," said Kelsey. "Pictographs."

They sat with their backs to the cliff, watching the sun drop behind the bluff across the valley.

"It takes half an hour to cut down a tree, and two hundred years to grow it back," Harrison said. "A terrible karmic debt, in my view."

"The earth is like God," Kelsey said. "It has a long memory, and infinite capacity to heal."
