The horizon that you see is famous because this is the area where one of John Wayne's movies was filmed. Also, if you look at the picture with the road in it, this is the spot where Forest Gump was running and looked back. The collage is free advertising for a Navajo man named Travis Jake who was excited about being on my travel blog. His jewelry stand is on Hwy 163 that passes through Monument Valley and has the sites in this entry. I put a sample of his jewelry and a picture of the stand so you could find him if you ever travel that way. He was very friendly and enthusiastic about his work and is great to tell you about the sites. He said that his truck is his factory because he makes jewelry from it as he waits for tourists to stop by. He is always watching for nice stones to use and thinking up original designs. The necklace shown is made of hematite and green Mojave.
