Carlsbad, NM January 16 Carlsbad RV Park After we had finished our hike at the Carlsbad Caverns, we drove to Roswell.

Carlsbad, NM January 16 Carlsbad RV Park Our friend Ken flew his plane from Colorado to visit this weekend! So fun, and we got to drink Pina Coladas..lots of them!

Tucson, AZ January 7-9 KOA We came to Tucson to meet up with Uncle Bobby and Aunt Jean, who are also traveling. We stayed at the KOA and it surprisingly very nice. I would have liked to be able to hang out there for a few more days, but we had to keep moving. Maybe it was the change of pace from the desert, but it was a nice change. We went to the Biosphere 2 for an afternoon. It’s an enclosed environment that was sealed for a time back in the 90’s for nine months with nine scientists...
