The Micro.blog challenge word for day 19 is “novel”. Paladin has a novel way of laying on the floor. We’re amused by his “fangs of doom” when he plays with his toy. 📷🐈⬛ #mbnov #Caturday

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 18 is “tire”. Our coach has large tires, one of which we had repaired after it developed a slow leak from a nail in the tire; impressive that it can have that embedded and still hold 100 PSI of pressure! 🚌🛞📷 #mbnov

On the Sinclair Trails blog: we visited Carlsbad Caverns a second time, this time to do the Natural Entrance and Big Room trails. 🦇




The Micro.blog challenge word for day 17 is “barrel”. Some barrels of wine at a vineyard run by monks in California, the New Clairvaux Vineyard. 📷 #mbnov #ThrowbackThursday

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 16 is “franchise”. A fairly common thing in national parks (e.g. Carlsbad Caverns) is to have two stores in visitor centers; one run by the park service, another franchised to a commercial operator, with more kitschy stuff. 📷 #mbnov

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 15 is “aluminium”. These elevator doors, 750 feet below ground at Carlsbad Caverns National Park, are probably made of aluminum. 📷 #mbnov
