Spring Time Trip to the Desert

Finally got the TT out for the first time in way too long (over a year). I got a weekend off so we packed & hitched up and took off on Friday, came back on Sunday. Short but sweet. Springtime in the low deserts of CA are beautiful, daytime high temps in the 80's, night time just cool enough for a light blanket. We stayed in a primitive campground on BLM land, tucked back 8 miles off the interstate on a washboard dirt road. First come first served, no reservations. We got in by around 4, and there were already 4 spots taken; I was surprised that out of 9 spots 6 were filled by Friday night, some left on Saturday, but some others came in, so the campground was busier than I expected it to be. Sunday came around too soon.

    Thank you. Yes, and the angle of the sun at this time of year is still pretty low, making for some interesting shadows.
