More time with the Hupps
We wanted more time with family and friends in Tucson. One more round of thinning out stuff we don't need, picking up a few things we do, and getting Bertha ready to head east. It's been great to have time with the family and long talks. Oh and Julie learned how to shoot a rifle and a hand gun including a bit of self defense lessons too. Colin said it' a bit like his EMT. Good skills to have but you hope you never have to use them.

As mentioned they fly out in the thousands, between 3 and 4 hundred thousand . This night was not as great and we witnessed around 30 thousand fly. On a previous trip so many flew that you could hear their wings flap and they ...
Five Days in the Desert
... week stay at the Desert Trails RV Park. This is the RV park that was literally built over a water amusement park that went bust some years ago, and at which we stayed for two nights when we drove the RT out to Seattle in April, 2010. The park, as we quickly discovered, is a much different place in January than it is in April, by which time a good number of the snowbirds have cleared out. More on that in a subsequent posting.
