Our Location: BLM, Ogilby Road, Winterhaven, CA
A very quiet night last night but I still kept waking up off and on for some reason. Riley on the other hand slept like a rock. A gray start to the day this morning with the signs of last night steady drizzle still lingering. A slight mist in the air when I opened the door to just peek outside.

Riley headed off for a walk and I went outside to start setting up our yard since we will be here for a while. It never takes long to set up or take down but sometimes it’s just the thought of doing it I guess that makes me procrastinate a bit. I also took about an hour to clean out the basement as I've been neglectful of doing so for the past while. I usually try to tidy it up once a week, just to keep things somewhat neat. Since I was taking things out it seemed like the perfect time to clean it up. Tomorrow I may tackle the truck. We shall see.

 |
| I agree, the ground also has some amazing colours also. |
The sun made a brief appearance, slipped behind some clouds and then finally made a lasting appearance which continued on through the rest of the day. A very nice day here in neighbourhood for sure. This afternoon it was down right balmy!!

| I walked down into this wash from the 'yard' in front of the door. The top pic is to the west, the bottom to the east. |
I took the camera and headed off for a bit of a stroll, not too far but wanted to get some photos for my blog before I got too lazy. Some nice views here of course. Numerous rigs around, not overly close and we like our space.

| A few miscellaneous pictures in this one. The bank of the wash just down from the Igloo. The twisted roots of a tree that is in the bank. Sunlight through the branches of a tree in the wash. The outside/inside temperature today. |

So there you have it, a very quiet, relaxing day for us here at the Igloo. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit.

| Some clouds mixing in with the top of the mountain. |

| Amazing the way it drifts in and out within seconds. |
Until next time…take care, be safe,

It was a wonderful Balmy day we really enjoyed it as well. I think most of our winter weather is behind us Warmer sunny days ahead.
ReplyDeleteI hope so, I like the balmy weather much better!!

Here's hoping the weather stays a little warmer neighbour, but tomorrow I think we will wander up Quartzsite way to brave the northern ranges. LOL
ReplyDeleteHello JB, welcome to A long and lonesome highway. I hope you enjoy your visit. Take along your hat and mittens JB, I hear it's cold up that way. You are a brave man. I think we'll hang around this area a bit longer and be more assured of better weather if we head that way. Safe travels to you.
