Ant Alert

Last week the park said it was ant season. They said to surround your tires with comet/bon ami. I have no idea why that prevents ants from going into your RV. We didn't do it. Denny kept saying we don't need to do it because he hadn't seen any. Wrong! We got home today from sightseeing and our carpet had ants. You could actually see them moving in a line. We are leaving tomorrow so putting out the comet wouldn't do any good. Denny vacuumed them up and threw away the bag. Hope that gets rid of them. We'll know we when get to our new spot tomorrow.

Our park had 2 man made lakes. Lots of ducks. We saw them everyday on our walk

More ducks

We went to the Kartchner Caverns today. Beautiful and amazing. It is a living cave so no cameras were allowed. Couldn't take water, camera's, backpack, jackets or anything into the caves. It is 70-72 degrees with 98% humidity. Pretty muggy and stuffy. I felt a drop of water. They say it is a cave kiss-means good luck.

It took me 4 days to get thru on the phone to make reservations. There are 2 tours going every 30 minutes. The only space they had this week was the Big Room tour at 10:45 today. Nothing else for the entire week. Next year we'll try for the Throne/Rotunda tour.

We have had a change of plans. We were going to leave Saturday, but decided to leave tomorrow, heading to Texas to see my relatives. It has been quite awhile since we traveled more than 50 miles to our next campground. Tomorrow we will be going 276 miles. That is about as much as we like to drive in one day. 

We have been in Az. since Jan. 14th.

Onward to new territory!
