Kit and Carol on the Road

Our luck with campgrounds seems to be holding. We arrived at the county park campground here on Thursday about noon. We got an amazing spot. If we had arrived 10 minutes later we would have been in the “overflow lot” for days. Not many people left until Monday. This part of Arizona north of Phoenix is part of the same sub- region of the Sonoran Desert as Organ Pipe so except for the organ pipe cactus the vegetation is much the same. There are many hiking trails and we tried a lot of them. (Are you getting the idea that we do a lot of hiking).

Saturday was a change-of pace-day. We drove to the Art Museum in downtown Phoenix for a special show—Rembrandt and the Dutch Masters, an exhibit on loan for the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam (where we have been). Lots of people. Great museum. Monday was another side trip, down to see Eleanor Conant in Surprise.
