Desert Day

I had a long day yesterday in the desert. Drove out to Palm Springs and then south over the mountains to Anza-Borrego. It took a long time; lotta ground covered. I finally got down into the desert, after many winding mountain roads, in late afternoon. It was great to commune with cacti again. And I went through so many different climates and geographies, the temperature ranged from 107 to 53! It's amazing that there are so many diverse worlds in such a small area. California, baby.

After nightfall I went to La Jolla to have dinner with Cheryn. That was great too. Now I'm back for my last full day here. Unless I just stay.

A few pics from yesterday:
