Geronimo - World's Largest Petrified Tree

The two RV Gypsies saw petrified wood just about everywhere in northeast Arizona. Here, they saw the "World's Largest Petrified Tree" at the Geronimo Trading Post. The tree is in several sections and weighs 80 tons. Best of all, as far as attractions go, it's free. It is just laying there right in the parking lot. The two RV Gypsies think it is actually worth seeing, too. It is one BIG piece of rock.

Below: The two RV Gypsies parked their RV at yet another KOA campground (Karen Duquette does not like the way this chain of campgrounds spells words that should start with the Letter C with the Letter K instead. They think it is clever, but Karen thinks this is why children have trouble learning how to spell in the English language. Just her personal opinion, that does not matter to anyone else.
