i think most of us need to get out more and turn the TV off. We have visited the Jefferson Davis house, Georgia Sandhill Crane Preserve,Carlsbad caverns, Lincoln New Mexico, of Billy the Kid and Pat Garret fame. Talked to a guy who retired and moved to Alamogordo NM to work on Foxhole homes, dwellings made from recycled materials in a self sustaining community for homeless vets. A young park ranger who had a presentation at school when he was about 8 from a park ranger and decided it was what he wanted to do. He knew every star, Native American history, every plant and animal and their behavior, archeology and was an Eagle Scout and scout leader. Such a quest for knowledge and full of enthusiasm.
White Sands national monument, petroglyphs, New Orleans an their flood walls, the raging Mississippi, the Hurricane Michael damage to Florida and Texas. A guy who camped isolated on BLM lands for 185 days to write a book. The more we see and the more we learn the more I realize how little we know in the greater scheme of things. This is the first time in close to a month we have had internet and decent cell service. Instead we have hiked, read, gone to numerous presentations at monuments, arboretums, historic and state and national parks. Truly magical.
We always get tempted to full time RV when we do this.
