More beautiful than words can say!

Font's Point is the most amazing place, we went up there with Brenda and Barry and it was a bit overcast. Borrego is going to get some rain this week, it is tropical and the desert flowers need it to bloom! Just imagine the great photos of those flowers I hope to get next month!

We went up in Barry's pickup, Larry rode up in the back of the pickup as there is just room for 3 of us in the cab, when you see the video that I have linked and you see the ride being bumpy, times those bumps by at least 10 as it is rough and washboarded the last 4 miles. Larry would say they were 20 times more rough than in the video!
Here is the video on a website, a must watch http://www.desertusa.com/video_pages/fonts.html
and here is another one as well

We took up some margharitas, wine, cheese etc and the propane firepit. Suffice to say that we were the envy of the others that were up there that night viewing the sunset. There is a picture of Larry and Barry bringing up the cooler and some of the campfire.

There is a picture of the moon coming up in the East, it was actually a burning red colour but the camera would not catch that colour and I had trouble steadying it for the long exposure that night photos take.

I took a million photos but will show some of them here as uploading a million is just not possible as much as I would like to show all of them!
