    Loved the vintage still shot of the Christ statue being transported to the park via truck. I can't imagine what the other motorists were thinking when they saw that.

      When they saw the statue being transported they more than likely said JESUS CHRIST. Just sayin, lol!

      @@OddityOdysseys Christ Park and Shiprock were both excellent choices. We're in San Bernardino and appreciate sights in our desert, lots of cool things to see. I was going to send you an email, have you seen Bill Mann's guides to the Mojave Desert? He has documented hundreds of cool places to visit. I could possibly make a copy of mine if you're interested. Would be lots of good ideas for you 🙂

    Those statues are so beautiful. I'm so happy no one has complained about them and tried to cause trouble. Built as a response to the Cold War, to promote peace. The statue of Christ would've been so gorgeous in the Grand Canyon. 😥

    i work the youtube channel of the church next to desert Christ park and if you ever return i can show you the history books about the church and the park from 1960 with the founders and to 2000 to present day and also we share the property so The Park and Church are one! even though they may have had to move the statues for our churches construction our church members in the 60's helped bring that Christ statue up that mountain and helped with other parts as well
