VERDE VALLEY TT

This is our spot at the Verde Valley TT. This is one of the nicest parks we have been in this summer. They have nice pickle ball courts. We played with a guy we met in Fl TT last year. He was playing left handed as had had a right shoulder operation. Said his shoulder felt great. There was another player named Bob, so
we had a great time. By the way Dick, Otto (Oland's dog) says hey

Close to the park is a NP called Montezuma Castle. It is cliff dwellings built by the Sinagua Indians. They farmed and lived here for about 3oo years. One of the reasons they lived in the cliffs (besides being safer) was to safe the land for farming. In the 1400's these people disappeared.

Several of the guesses are drought, over population, disease.

Can find the critter on the tree. He acted as if his picture had been taken quite a bit, as he didn't seem to mind my taking it. Kind of posed .
