Day late with this post...



Our Location: BLM, American Girl Mine Road, CA
 
I had good intentions of writing this post last night but as you can see my good intentions didn't make it to paper or in this case, computer. 
 
 
Our closest neighbour.

Or is he our closest neighbour?
 
How funny is it that I didn't sleep well our first night here. I think it was too quiet. Or it could have been the squeaky board under my mattress but that's for another day. We were both up around 7 AM and enjoyed sitting with a hot drink and just looking out the windows. Truly we enjoy the desert! 
 
 
You know I'll be hiking back there before long.

Looking to the EAST this morning.
 
We had a couple of plans for our day ahead and began by resetting the Igloo, just a tiny bit as I didn't notice until after we had unhooked that we had a slight dip on one side. Yes we have levels but either my eyes weren't focused or my mind wasn't working. We were too tired to fix it on Monday when we arrived and so it was first on the agenda in the morning. 
 
 
Looking back to the west.
 
Next we headed into Yuma to shop for the next week. We don't want to have to head into town for anything during the next number of days and we both agreed we wanted to avoid the Thanksgiving Day/Black Friday masses. We made only one stop and of course we had planned but didn't make the second. We'll get to Fry's after the holiday rush. 
 
 
I think tomorrow this wash might be running with some water.
 
Back home we spent the rest of the day just relaxing and resting, I put out a couple of lights and managed to snap NOT one photo. Today's photos were taken early this morning. 
 
 
Some barrel cacti in our front yard.
 
 
Tomorrow's forecast is calling for some winds, rains and cooler temps but nothing like the weather Empire Ranch will be getting. We are both happy to have made this decision and are looking forward to some hiking and walking in the days ahead. 
 
 
Some one left some sea shells here in our front yard.
 
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you all enjoyed your visit. Always thinking of George and Suzie!!
 
We may not see much of the sun today.
 
Until next time... take care, be safe, 
 
 
Don't you just love the views?
