this is the first internet access i've had this trip so far.
6/26 thursday night we spent in Dallas in a weird motel.
6/27 drove to lake brantley state park friday to camp. Nothing but desert and jackrabbits as far as the eye could see. Camped. Woke up to a big black tarantula. expect photos.
6/28 drove to Carlsbad and walked to cave trails. Ate lunch 750 feet below the surface.
drove to Roswell and went to the international UFO center and research station.
made it as far as Magdalena Mountains to camp again.
heard the coyotes...
saw many tumbleweeds
drove through a dust storm that was like being in an episode of Carnivale
the scenery out here is so beautiful it looks fake.
I got to drive through crazy precarious winding mountain roads for a long time today.
Arrived in Chandler Arizona today at 3pm. Met Rob who gave us a tour of the area. Ate dinner at Pita Jungle with Monkey, went to "the lake" and out for drinks with Rob and Monkey. Now back at Rob's place enjoying AC, wine, good dogs and good company.
I will now attempt to upload some photos to Cam's computer...
miss y'all!

You are a brave soul, camping in the summer in Carlsbad. I did that once and at 3 in the morning I woke up convinced menopause had hit. Nope. It was just a cool 95 degrees in the middle of the night. At least I was awake to see the sunrise.
"Like an episode of Carnivale"
If you meet anyone named Justin, run the other way. I may not forgive you for reminding me that we aren't ever getting another season of the show. :(
I look forward to more pictures!
Great pictures, keep 'em coming.
Are you camping in AZ too? I love the huge saguaro cacti and all the crazy smaller prickly plants too.
Hope you find a great place to live so we can come visit!
