Can you say "Flowers"... (02/13/05)
We were really having seconds thoughts about this
trip. The weather on the coast was pretty bad and the news was
talking about flash floods. Driving south on 805 we saw a pretty bad accident
involving 6 cars. Another accident on the 8 freeway had us asking ourselves if
we should really be out driving around.
Lucky for us once we dropped down into Ocotillo the weather was actually nice
with minimal wind.
In Ocotillo we met up with Jan and Gina in their BJ70 Diesel Land Cruiser and
took them out to one of our favorite camping spots in the Carrizo Creek area.
Once again our "secret" campsite was available so we parked the
Cruisers and hiked further up into the side canyon.
Hilights of the hike were Jan playing with this
cool brown tarantula

and Kaiel's rock climbing antics.

Driving down "Canyon Sin Nombre" we were lucky to
find an intense wildflower field.

The Anza Borrego Desert is alive with color right
now.
