Into the desert we ride...

The Motel 6 Oasis

Greetings to all of our loved ones from the desert!  Where to start?  This trip has been such an amazing journey thus far.   It has been far from easy starting in the mountains but we are gaining strength in body, mind and spirit.  The scenery is spectacular and has changed with each mountain and elevation gain.  The wild life is among us from the raccoon that persistently invaded our kitchen the first night as we camped next to the US forest service outpost to the pack of coyotes that I awoke to last night in Joshua tree.  We have also spotted the infamous road runner as well as a very large coyote (dead).  Beautiful!  The night sky last night was clear and quiet but the wind has picked up tonight.  Tomorrow we set sail for a 93 mile ride to a town close to the AZ border.  We are stocked up on H2O and food and we are rested and stretched.  We love you all and hold you in our thoughts.  Tomorrow we ride into the rising sun. 

Love to all, Dave
