Goodbye Palm Springs, Hello High Desert, Yermo, CA - October 31, 2016

Happy Halloween!!


It has been a good 6 night stay in the Palm Springs area. Our last outing was to the Joshua Tree National Park. After hitting the visitor center to get our passport stamped,





The NP sign photo.





The entrance.







Besides all the Joshua trees,





there were big piles of rocks all over.









We drove to the Keys View area. This had a really cool view of the entire Coachella Valley.






And more rocks.




Next stop was the Jumbo Rocks campground (not for big rigs) and Skull Rock, where we stopped to eat our lunch.

Heading south through the park, we stopped ay the Cholla cactus garden.




Then back on to Interstate 10 and home. It was a good day.

Around 8 AM on Monday morning, we headed out of the Palm Springs TT park and headed for Barstow. We are heading for a Christian Fellowship rally in Death Valley and broke the trip in half by stopping for the night in Yermo at Peggy Sue's 50's Diner.



Only 1 night here and we will get to Death Valley tomorrow.



Stay tuned....
