Jeff and I joined my fellow anthropology students and several professors from the Anthropology department for a day trip down to Seminole Canyon State Park to see the 4,000 year old rock art painting there.

It was rough - getting up at 5:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning, especially after this particular week of exams and presentations, papers and projects, was brutal and I was trying to convince myself I still wanted to go. There was a large group of students assembled outside the university in the cold and early morning, ready to brave the trip. We piled aboard four vans and settled in for the four hour drive down to Seminole Canyon. Jeff and I nodded off several times along the trip and hoped it would be worth it, since it was likely we wouldn't be home until near midnight.

It was. Worth it, that is. Absolutely incredible. Though we did indeed just crawl back into bed as soon as we got home (near midnight, and after a couple of ibuprofens for me) it was so worth it.

I'll finish this in a couple more posts today...
