Humpty Dumpty......

7:44 am - Saturday - January 8th - Anza Borrego Desert, CA - 48° F, 63% humidity, wind 1 mph out of the west......partly cloudy today with a forecast high of 70° F.   On this date in 2016 we received a dusting of snow on the local mountains at our boondock site near Borrego Springs....picture courtesy Steven Dempsey (copyright).......↴


Friday marked 3 weeks since we last dumped our tanks, and we were around ¾'s full, so we headed over to Palm Canyon Campground in Borrego Springs around 10 am to do the deed.  We'll only be here another week at the most, and probably could have made it to next Friday, but what else have we go to do, right?  It's been a while since we did a real thorough flushing of our black tank so we kept flushing it until another RV pulled in behind us.  By the time we arrived back at our boondock site it was after 11:30 am.  TLE expertly guided me as I backed into our site getting me right next to the artificial turf in one try.  It took me another 30 minutes to reattach the mirror covers, redeploy the window awnings on the driver side, and redeploy the solar lights.  

I lounged outside in one of the anti gravity chairs reading, and taking a couple of naps the rest of the afternoon enjoying the clear, blue skies, and gentle breezes wafting through our boondock site.  We talked about having a sunset fire, but the wind freshened out of the east a little making it undesirable, so we remained inside reading for much of the evening.....




.....I did, however, record the sunset we received, and it was the perfect ending to another boondock day.
