Alf and Linda must leave...

We were able to set the camera up on the tri-pod with the timer to take our pictures.  Our new friends are continuing on their holiday and heading over to Glamis California Sand Dunes.  In fact, they are meeting up with friends that they met last year while camping in Arizona.  See everyone who has the same common interests plan to see each other again.  We've been so fortunate to meet up with such nice people every single time we go on the road!




They make such an adorable couple!

Can you believe that they have been married for 51 years?  That is right, married to each for 51 years! They don't even look old enough to be married 51 years!
They don't act like they have been married 51 years!
They act like us, newlyweds, LOL!
Hopefully on their next holiday they will try to come to our home and visit us in our area.  We've talked about it and it would be fun to be with each other once again.  

PC and I went on a relaxing and fun ride.  You can see our travel trailer, truck and camp area from the top of this mountain that we are standing on.







Beautiful views while riding our ATVs.

Okay, this picture is out of order but you will understand why when we explain it to you.  See the dust in the sky.  It was a practice run for the Parker 425.  The dust engulfed the area as you can see for yourself.  We told you, we never been in that much dust before.  Thank goodness it never came to us where we were riding our ATVs or our campsite.  If you don't understand why this picture was posted out of order, then please go back to the previous posting.  We just couldn't spoil the fun by showing this picture the day before the big race.




While riding we do like to stop and hike a bit.

And yes, we do act silly too!



Now that SR got herself up this mountain she needs to get down.  It is always harder to jump down than climb up.  SR Jump!  Jump!




No jumping for SR.  Using legs and hands, going slow - PC didn't get the picture of when SR was on her behind coming down the mountain, LOL.  It sure was funny to watch.  You just had to have been there.  Laugh, go ahead it was very funny!
SR is just so proud of herself climbing up high, not falling and having fun.  Back down on level land, yippee!



Perfect opportunity to have a self-portrait while up high in the mountains and enjoying the peace and quiet.  Other than our laughing with each other about everything and anything.  Yep, we were in a goofy mood.

That is how we ended this wonderful day.

Collecting more wood for our campfire the next day.  
Keep it all organized and neat, ready to enjoy in the evening.
Here is our campfire!
We had one almost every single night - so romantic and warm.
We would throw in hard and stale marshmallows into the fire and watch them grow.  It really is fun to watch and see the different shapes.  We would have a competition to see which marshmallow would stand up and get the highest.
Again, you just needed to be there to have the laugh.
Alf and Linda did it with us one night and it was very entertaining for all of us.
We do odd things for entertainment while camping!




Another wonderful morning, perfect for a slow ride on some new flatland trails.

The trees are just so interesting and old.  You can see and imagine the life of these trees.  They are alive and well.  They just are not in bloom.






Look very carefully at this picture.  What do you see?  PC, yes.  What else?  A big beautiful tree, yes!  Look what has grown just inches away from the base of this tree.  A cactus which is just as old as the tree.  See how high this cactus is?  An amazing find and we just had to get this picture.

We hoped you enjoyed these several days with us on this one posting.
