As you can see, desert nights can be a bit chilly.
Curt and Donovan went on a hike to find these pictographs. Thank goodness for cameras, I got to see them without the hiking effort! Molly and I had a great, quiet day at camp.
Campfires are so much fun! We especially like the smores! There must be a campfire initiation when you camp with former scouts. Be sure to check out the video.
Isn't Molly just gorgeous in her handmade sweater? Renee sure had fun making it for her, so she would stay warm during the cold desert nights. She was such a good sport to wear it. I think she liked it!
These are the remains of an abandoned homestead. The story goes that a man brought his wife and children out to live here in the desert so he could live his dream life of living off the land...not such a good dream for the wife though. After nine years of struggle, the wife decided she had had enough of this nightmare, and thus the end of living off the land!
Agua Caliente was the campground of choice for our mini vacation to the desert with Donovan. We had three fun days of hiking around the campground trails and elsewhere in the area. We got home just in time to see Barak Obama sworn in as President.
