  • Story behind the image:

    One of the places I had always wanted to visit was Monument Valley because of scenes from the movie Back to the Future III. So when my wife and I planned our "Grand Circle" trip through Southern Utah and Northern Arizona, Monument valley was a "no-brainer". Highway 163 provides beautiful views of Monument Valley in the distance and it also happens to be the road where Forest Gump decides to stop running and return home to Alabama.
