So what’s life like spending five weeks at the same campground? What dooo we do?
Well there’s plenty of time to rest, relax, or read that new book we just haven’t had the time to get around to.
Then there’s the great outdoors right out our front steps. Nature awaits!
If hiking isn’t your thing, how about biking? Horseback riding? We share the trail you know!
Had enough physical activity? How about a little socializing?
Five weeks in the same location gave us the pleasure of making new friends. I met my first RV blogging buddy; Mona Liza of the Lowe’s RV Adventures. We ate, drank and laughed around a campfire. We played games. We visited and exchanged travel tales. We had new campground friends, Nancy and Larry of Montana join in the fun.
Not enough adventure? Book a Hot Air Balloon ride. I had so much fun photographing theses guys, I didn’t personally feel the need to go up. Perhaps next time!
It’s hard for me to pick my favorite thing to do, but I will add watching the wildlife is a top contender. These guys make me smile 🙂

[…] Cattail Cove State Park from fellow blogger Mona Liza. We also met the Lowe’s last year at Cave Creek Regional Park just after their 2 week stay at Cattail Cove. For our visit, I was quick to use Mona Liza’s […]

Jerry and I love the Go John Trail. It was always one of our favorites!! I must admit though, even with the cold temperatures (this week has warmed up quite nicely to the 40s), Jerry and I are loving Cherry Creek State Park. The running is magnificent :).

Glad you’re enjoying yourselves. Will you stay in Denver until you head to Yellowstone? We loved Cave Creek and will return in Feb.

Nope. A winter storm will dump more snow and lower the temperatures again this weekend. We are heading for Arizona on Thursday morning! We will spend a couple of weeks in Benson and then head up to Phoenix, so Jerry can get his photography work started.

Love the biking and hiking. I like seeing others horseback riding, but horses kind of scare me (my oldest would roll her eyes at me, since she’s way into jumping). I can see from your post though why RVing can be addicting.

I know what you about horses. I have similar feelings. Yes RVing is addicting. We have ALL the comforts of home with a new backyard and neighbors on our terms…..doesn’t get much better!

Oh, that Bear let’s me do just about anything to him. When our daughter was little, she and her friends would dress him up in baby clothes. He just loved the attention. Thanks for stopping 🙂

I was recently in Tucson, and we saw a Javelina. That’s cool stuff! Looks like enough to occupy me for 5 weeks!

Ok now I’m jealous. I so want to see those Javelina’s. We had some go through the shrubs between campsites one night and shined a flash light on them, not a good view.
Surprisingly we kept very, very busy.

LOL….the poor guy has cateracts and poor vision. When I put the glasses on him, he didn’t try and knock them off. So I wonder…..did the glasses help Bear see better? Wish he could tell me 😉 Yes, good times!
