| First site Senator Wash Reservoir |
 |
| Irrigated Dates |
Wind blew in at about 9 am as we were leaving Mike and Palm Springs although we didn’t actually leave the vicinity until 11 due to Target and Trader Joes and Albertsons visits. S got a few things like a swim suit and I got an Hawaiian shirt in black and white plus I forgot about the trip to the thrift store, Angel View, yesterday at which S and I got long sleeve light colored shirts, mine was linen and about the size of a pup tent, for to keep the sun at bay on the hike.
So we left Rancho Mirage at 11 and the dust was blowing hard but mostly from the rear so no problem. Rolled past the Salton Sea, Bombay Beach, Niland, Brawley, and mile upon mile of industrial lettuce, broccoli and such to arrive at Yuma and not too long thereafter at the Senator Wash Reservior in the late afternoon. Slipped into the spot occupied last year by the three Sprinters group so now with just our nuclear family it was a bit lonely seeming. S says Mark and Lisbet of that trio are in Kentucky working the Amazon warehouse and E is figuring out life after F passed this past Christmas. B was happy however standing in the water drinking and peeing simultaneously. S whipped up a stir fry to die for and we settled into a cup of box wine as darkness flowed in and the wind eased.
Spending so much time in public toilets these days was thinking of maybe a photo essay, but not tonight because there are no toilets around here, maybe tomorrow, maybe not.
