Capitol Reef National Park

The rock structures in this National Park reminded me of Egyptian temples & monuments. Love the colouration of the various layers.
Inside the park, the historic Mormon settlement of Fruita was a good spot for morning tea. The Gifford House was originally built in 1908 by polygamist Calvin Pendleton. Inside were some patchwork quilts & other items from the early 1900's.
This chair is the only original piece of furniture. It has a leather thonging seat.
