OVERTON WILDLIFE REFUGE

Welcome to Overton Wildlife Refuge – our home for the next little while.  We feel very lucky to have a site, there are only eight.  The sites are huge and if we are asked, we will gladly share.October 2012_4107
The campsites all have a shelter over a metal picnic table, and a BBQ.  The view is amazing.  I got a lot of flack about this picture.  No, I am not preparing to water a bush, I just wanted to be in the picture showing the view of the butte behind us.

When we were here last spring,  Doug and Parker took long walks in the refuge.  Parker has improved quite a lot but he does not have the energy to chase bunnies.

They went for a walk but even that was short-lived.

Pretty isn’t it.

It's great.  We have 25 channels of television on our antenna, our internet aircard works most of the time.  The laundromat in town has reopened.  Best of all it's FREE.

It's nice when refuges give the sites plenty of room. :)

Glad to see you settled in the desert and warm again. Great looking site. It's going to be hard to see Parker not able to chase rabbits. But I'm so glad he's better an still with us. We'll all love him a lot. Enjoy the sunshine.
