Land of Contentment

What if you did not have to got to work every day?  What if every day when you got up you could do what you want, and go where you want?  That is the plight of the typical person traveling around in an RV.  The net result is you rarely meet anyone but content people when you bed down in some campground in the middle of nowhere.  People are friendly, easy to meet, full of good advice, and willing to share.  Already this year the Kadizzles have made many new friends and hiked with old friends we have met traveling in the past.  Act like you are working on your truck or your camper and ten men will show up to help.  Someone always has the tool you need.

A special sub group of fellow travelers are the bird brains.  Kadizzle just came back from his morning visit to the main office where he fired the cannon.  On the way there he met a bird watcher.   In a bit of a challenge Kadizzle asked if the gentleman had ever seen the Elegant Trogan?   Sure enough he had.  The Elegant Trogan  lives in just one place in the United States, Patagonia State Park.  Purist go there just to see that bird.  The bird is a celebrity.  In the course of conversation the bird brain told me about the Peach Faced love bird.  Although Kadizzle has been in Usery Park many times Kadizzle did not know it was the home of the Peach Faced Love Bird.  Now that Kadizzle rethinks he did see a strange bird there that looked like a Parrot.  Apparently someone let a pair loose of the African Bird and now there are 5,000 of them in that area.
