Day 15 – June 5th

Yesterday, June 5th, Ray hiked the 1.4 miles in 111 degree heat to the best view up the Boquillas Canyon. Jack was smarter and stayed in the air conditioned car. Then we drove from Big Bend National Park to Carlsbad, NM, about 285 miles. Temperature in Carlsbad was cooler: 105 degrees!

Today, June 6th, we will tour Carlsbad Caverns, then drive 150 miles to Lone Tree Bible Ranch, where Ray’s neice, Heather and husband Ken, reside with their young children, Joah and Leah Ruth. Ken is Camp Director there. Plan to have dinner with them and stay overnight in a small cabin they generously offered. Should be 15 to 20 degrees cooler!
