Endless sands

on the road again... going with T to New Mexio. Endless gravelly sandy beach like settings... with no water/ocean in sight. Hmmmm. .. I think I'm getting this beach theme vacation idea wrong.
lol, I'll send pictures as soon as I get them down loaded.

California or Bust...

I finally made it up and OVER the mountain! T & I went to California via Vegas last week. It was a fun road trip. Though he was on business and I for pleasure. So we did some quick sight seeing. No gambling. Neither of us has any luck with it. Went through the desert on a horse with no name.. :).. saw real palm trees. it was hot - and it's true that it's a different kind of heat. We saw the world's tallest thermometer, and it read 104. Cool for the desert is what I hear. Well, it was 94 the next day on the way home. Cold front going through. After we made it out of the desert and up the pass and down into the outskirts of LA.. we finally encounter fog? So the sky clouded up and I could barley see an outline of the mountains ... no blue sky or ocean view. T says it's that way every time he comes here. He's never been on a blue clear sky day like on TV. ... I could smell the salt air from wear we stopped for the night. So all was not lost. maybe next time we'll see the ocean. All and All a fun trip.
