Jack and Mary Jagt are retired from the work of trading in natural rubber (Jack) and Intensive Care Nursing (Mary). They love to travel in their RV - nicknamed the Merrie Yacht. Recently moved from the home they raised their family in to a condo in a smaller town, they now have fewer home responsibilities and hope to be on the road more often.

Another museum - today we went to visit the state run historical museum in Papago Park in Phoenix. It is a large museum with lots of interesting exhibits, but we were the only visitors and we found that most of the audio and push button exhibits were not working. To us, it was evidence that state budgets are tight and that cuts are becoming evident. Arizona is in very real trouble with continuing high unemployment and and shrinking revenues with industry closing and the housing market in a huge slump. After our visit, we had lunch at Subway and returned home to spend the afternoon by the pool in the lovely sunshine.
