The Half-Blood Prince had this book before me and he went crazy in this section.

I thought of Charles Taylor immediately when I saw this sign.

Another amazing gem right off of I-40 in New Mexico.

The Painted Desert in Petrified Forest National Park. Definitely worth a visit if you’re traveling on I-40; it’s right off the interstate.
