Summer, 2019

Our summer travels this year actually started in Tucson, where we parked our trailer in front of the White house.  No reservations were needed and the accommodations were excellent.  The hosts were gracious, so we do plan on coming back again.  Our only disappointment was missing Tommy the Tortoise, who was still hibernating and oblivious to his surroundings.

Our Saturday evening stroll along Snyder road was cut short by the incoming thunderstorm.  Doris, Don, Jerry and Sandy were all ahead of me as I stopped to take some pictures.

Black clouds obscured the moon, while distant lightening illuminated the sky at times.

As the winds increased in velocity, it was time to head back and watch the storm from the back porch.

We left on Monday morning, heading to Colorado for the summer.  Our first stop was 50 miles south of Albuquerque, in Bosque, New Mexico.  Not only is this a RV park, it's also a horse hotel!!

 A walk around the park and along the old U.S. 60 road that flanked the backside of the park yielded not a single horse.   Lots of stalls and a big enclosed riding ring were available for the equestrians who travel with their favorite mounts.  It made me wonder where those people stayed at while on the road since not many RV parks or state parks have those types of facilities available.  At our stage in life, we don't even want a dog to worry about, much less a horse!
