When I grow up

 I think I want a houseboat.  A water RV.  A small one.  Something a couple could sleep aboard. Maybe something like this. Imagine the freedom.  Putter around the lake.  Pull up to a dock.  Drop anchor in a secluded cove.  Go anywhere you want… …as long as you want to be on that particular body of water.

Back to civilization

 We drove down the highway today.  We’ve left Arizona behind and are in Las Cruces, NM at a full-hookup RV park for a couple days. 2014 summer/fall trip map We stayed in the same time zone, mountain time, but in leaving Arizona we switched from standard time to daylight savings time. The television weather forecast:  Severe clear.

Can you spot the

 …lizard in this tree?     No?  We couldn’t either until a movement caught our eye and we looked at him through binoculars.  He’s pretty well camouflaged.  How about now?     I didn’t hide him off to the side; he’s right in the middle of the frame.       Hiding in plain sight.

Oh No!

 A blowout! Hope this is not a harbinger of things to come for the team.  Wait.  Field fix.  Nevermind. No problem.  We’ve moved out of the internet dead-zone back to civilization.  We’re at Kartchner Caverns State Park just south of Benson, AZ. 2014 summer/fall trip map Winding our way VERY slowly east.
