Tucson 2

 It was a good day for cleaning  up our acts.  Get showers, wash the clothes.  Wash the dog.  Yup, Skye says she had a bad day, lots of abuse.  You guys who said “stop spoiling her” got their day.  We took her to the beauty shop, PetSmart, for a bath.  She is now pretty, clean, and sweet smelling.  She is not happy about that at all.  She is looking forward to visiting the cows at Empire Ranch.

While she was getting spiffy we took a drive around the loop at Saguaro National Park.  We get in there for something on most of our visits here.  It is such a special place.  While there we met a couple from Hartland VT.  They had flown over for a week’s vacation and were enjoying the amazing Saguaro forest.

Back at camp we had a long chat with the campers next door.  They’re from Colorado Springs and have been coming here about as long as we have.  They were saying how they used to have several friends to do this with but most of them had quit long term camping.  They all used to go to Quartzite, a very large BLM area in west AZ.  We have driven through the area and were not interested.  Maybe with a group.  

Today’s photos are all from the park
