Another catch-up
Yes, it's been a while since I posted. We didn't have reliable internet and then we didn't have internet at all. Now that we have internet again, I have been too busy to post. So here's the catch-up...
Fri Sept. 29th - Bryce canyon. This deserves it's own post. Coming soon with photos.
Sat Sept. 30th - We drove from Kanab, UT to just east of Flagstaff, AZ and stayed the night at the Meteor Crater. It was a pretty big dent in the ground.
Sun Oct. 1st - After leaving the Meteor Crater, we drove to Albuquerque, NM. The next day, Monday, I had an appointment to have the Jeep's oil changed and to investigate a strange burning smell.
Mon Oct. 2nd - The Jeep appointment went fine and the smell turned out to be nothing...according to the dealership. So we travelled on, stopping in Carlsbad, NM. Here they were supposed to have internet, but it was really awful!
Tue Oct. 3rd - Mike and I took the King's Palace tour at Carlsbad Cavern. We had both been there before so we tried something different. It was so cool that after the tour, we decided to come back the next day and take the regular tour via the natural entrance route. That afternoon, we drove out to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park and looked around. On the way back to Carlsbad, we stopped at the caverns and watched the bats fly out. That night was really spectacular and they estimated there were around 1 millions bats.
Wed Oct. 4th - We did indeed go back to the cavern and it was awesome. We got a few good photos but most of them didn't turn out. We left Carlsbad around 1pm and drove to Balmorhea State Park. This was the first stop for us on our tour and we enjoyed it so much that we stopped by again. We had the pool almost all to ourselves!
Thurs Oct. 5th - Today we drove the long haul back to my home town. We have a few weeks to visit and take care of business.
Fri Oct. 6th - The first business we took care of was going to the storage building to change out some items. Boy, that really stunk! Later that night, we visited with our 2 month old nephew for the first time. He is really a cutie!
Sat Oct. 7th - Octoberfest! Also, we dropped the MH off at the dealership for some repairs.
Sun Oct. 8th - Visiting. Having a great time.
Mon Oct. 9th - Now we're getting into the "too boring for the blog" stuff. Mostly work and paperwork. As it looks right now, Mike and I will be spending Nov, Dec, and Jan (at least) on the gulf coast of Florida. I have been really busy taking care of paperwork for my contract position and finding us a place to stay. We're working out the fine details.
Tue Oct. 10th - Well, that brings us up to today. It rained 4+ inches this morning and I would say that it qualified for a real "turd floater". I'm kind of glad we weren't in the MH. The rest of the day was more boring stuff. Tomorrow is going to be another early morning so that's it for the night.
