Nice day with low wind and around 20C 68F, so we checked out a desert oasis located between Pahrump and Death Valley NP today called Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. Not much wildlife this time of year, and the vegetation is mostly still in a winter state, but the natural springs were interesting to see. Due to the white limestone rock, they have a beautiful; aquamarine coloring and are home to tiny pupfish.
My new Ford finally got here ! The chip shortage had caused a delay. They suggested I not add too many options or we'd have more delays due to the supply chain.
Got my eye on a 43' DRV Mobile Suite. It only weighs ~24k #'s. That keeps me in the 10-15% range of weight ratio. I figured the truck has to be less than 2500#.
Blooming desert. Took a drive out to the California Poppy Reserve in Antelope Valley near Lancaster, CA, yesterday. Not as good as the 2019 visit, which was a banner year but still very impressive!
A couple nights ago, on the Campbell River, BC estuary. Panorama view from our summer RV site. The tide was high, and the winds were calm, making for a pretty reflection view at sunset. You can see why we come back year after year.
