On the move again

Today we are headed back to Yuma for a few days then on to Mesa for a week.

Our stay in California has been everything we wished for it to be.  It was so great to hike some of the PCT with Alan an Nicole.  We were able to bring them into our home several times and give them hot showers, meals and a nice warm bed to sleep in.  It is fun to share our travels with each other, them on foot and us in the truck and fifth wheel.  I wish we were going to be closer to them down the road but unfortunately our schedules do not cross again.  So Happy Trails Alan and Nicole (Nomad and Butterfly) see you in the fall.

Our spot at Pinezanita

Last night was pretty cold here at Pinezanita, it got down to 43 degrees.  The heater has been going all morning.  Yesterday was a little warmer when we got up but still chilly.  We all had breakfast and then jumped into the truck for the drive back to Barrel Springs where we dropped Alan and Nicole off to continue their hike.  We drove to the little town of Warner Springs where we parked the truck and started on the PCT to meet up with them.  That stretch of trail is so picturesque, it brought back memories of the hike we did through here last April with Yuma Outdoor Adventure.  We hike about 4 miles to Eagle Rock where we meet Alan and Nicole.

 Had a break then headed back to Warner Springs.  What a great way to spend the day.  We leave them at the community center and drive back to Julian where we stop of pizza at Wynola Pizza Express.  We don't usually like thin crust pizza but this was so good.  We had a sausage and onion pizza and a spring salad.  The flavors of the wood cooked pizza were so good I was ready to order a second one, but I couldn't eat another bite.

Spent the rest of the day just relaxing and ended with watchnig a movie called The Big Year.  It is about birding.  Who would of thought that a movie about birding would be so good.  It is more about relationships and finding ones place in life as it is about birding.  We highly recommend this movie.
