Heading North

Spent yesterday afternoon wandering through Joshua Tree National Park. It is full of stunning landscapes. And lots of climbers. It was difficult to find a rock that didn’t have someone climbing on it.

And the closer it got to sunset, the warmer the colours became. I suppose the sunrise colours are just as beautiful but that would mean getting up before, well, sunrise.

After all the hills and valleys you go over and through while driving through the park, it’s surprising to come to this prairie-like vista.

It’s time to start heading north. Today we’ll pack up and head over towards I-5 and stay overnight at a very fine U.S. Forest Service campground that we stayed at two years ago outside of Piru, CA. That’s just over a three hour drive so no rush to pack up and no long drive to anticipate. We should likely be home by the weekend or sooner depending on the weather.
