Been moving around quite a bit and the more places I go the behinder I get writing the blog, Then add videos…

I last wrote about Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge and left you hanging in mid-April…
…on my way to Tumacácori National Historical Site.
From there I visited a friend in Bisbee for several days and we talked for hours, took a mine tour, and ate out a lot. Had a great time!
Because temperatures are holding below 90° I continued east to Chiricahua National Monument and saw hoodoos. Who knew?
Followed by more awesome granitic boulders reminiscent of Joshua Tree National Park, without those trees but lots of green, boondocking at BLM Indian Bread Rocks Recreation Area south of Bowie.
I will post about each of these adventures separately, and made videos. But in the meantime, this is what you get for this week.
Don’t know where I’m going next, but the more places I go the behinder I get.
I’m a happy camper.
Just typed a comment and it vanished ,☹️
I know what you mean after being away for 9 weeks, I am struggling to catch up especially as the garden is shouting help. Being retired means that you have less time to do all the things you had time for while working!!
Hugs Diane and Nigel.
Though I want to read all about your travels in RSA, I understand the garden comes first.
So how does that work after retirement? Do we move slower? LOL
Hugs!
Enjoying your blog and pictures again, as usual. I still
have not been to Bisbee, but I plan on going sometime after I return to AZ. Ken is working down there, renovating a friends newly purchased old house.
Thanks. Bisbee is a cool town. Ken might have been working next door to my friends place. Too funny.
LOL – hard to blog when you’re having grand adventures!! Pretty pic of the lake.
Yes it its, but I see you manage. I can’t even seem to keep up with reading.
Bisbee fun!! Glad you continue to enjoy that retirement life – keep a movin’ !!
Bisbee is a fun town with a great vibe.
I adore the GREAT owl! And camouflaged Sierra. Always surprised to see her out. If you know, what is the plant/tree with orange blooms in foreground to Tumacacori?
Thanks, seeing the owl was so cool. Sierra doesn’t go out much, too much stress for me. The flowering tree at Tumacacori is a Pomegranate.
I’ve seen owls nest on the cliffs, but never in trees. What an awesome neighbor!
Keep enjoying your travels, as we will.
I rarely see owls anywhere. They often nest in the Saguaros.
Hi Gaelyn, I am so pleased you are enjoying your retirement. Meeting up with friends and visiting many places. Thanks for the lovely photo’s Love the one of the owl. Take care and stay healthy.
Thanks Rita. I’m having so much fun! Be well.
Love the owl picture. I can completely understand the more you travel the behind or you get. But the truth is there are so many wonderful places to see and not enough time to do it in.
Thanks. I’m so loving this careful style of travel.
