Four Corners madness

Friday, June 5 – Ok, so we know that the Four Corners Monument is not on Conde Nast Traveler’s top vacation destinations, but since we were so close, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to be in four states at once. Even our great guidebook, The Rough Guide to Southwest USA, only gave it a paragraph saying, “However exciting you may find the concept, the reality is bleak and dull. A steady stream of visitors mooch around the pivotal brass plaque, contorting a limb into each state for demeaning photographs.”

Guilty.

However, there was one hilarious family there that took it to the next level. Mom, Dad and two teenage girls were having a blast trying to take self portraits. It was really windy out there in the middle of the reservation, so the girls started to ham it up, as pictured here. They also thought we were pretty funny with the banana, so when they left, they said, “Bye, banana people.” They asked for our blog address, so hopefully they’ll see that they made it into the blog.
