ANZA-BORREGO STATE PARK (PART 3)
Feb 20rd to the 23rd.
On February 20th we came back to the state park for 4 more days. Because we were too early to check in we stopped at the
visitors’ center and happened to park next to another Lazy Daze.
When we came back out
they were in their RV so we knocked on the door and introduced ourselves. Brian
and Renee have a 2006 red RB Lazy Daze. We got a call from them later in the afternoon to
see if we wanted to stop by after dinner for some wine and visit. We did and had
a great time visiting.
The next afternoon we invited Brian, Renee and Eric and Helma (Who we had met earlier and who own a 2011 teal RB Lazy Daze) to join us
for a 4 o’clock happy hour. It was a lot of fun to visit and hear everyone’s
opinions on their LD’s and RV’ing in general. We sat and visited until 6
o’clock.

Renee.
After hearing reports of
people seeing the Bighorn Desert Sheep we decided to take the 3 mile round trip hike back to the
Palm Canyon Oasis. There are only about 200 of these sheep left in the world.
The following pictures are from our hike to Palm Canyon Oasis. There were a few plants
blooming here in the desert but it will take a little more heat for the
blooming to really get going.
A Beaver Tail Cactus just getting
ready to bloom.
Another desert beauty next to
an Ocotillo.
Our goal in the distance is
Palm Canyon Oasis and it’s still about one-half mile away.
Someone walking by offered to
take our picture while we were resting in the shade. She saw us sitting there
and just offered which was very nice of her.
Bullock's Oriole, we could hear it but could not see it.
We finally made it to the Oasis.
A small waterfall at the
Oasis.
Landscaping by Mother Nature
is always the best.
We saw about a dozen rams in
this group. A little further away we saw some ewes and lambs but they
were too far away to get any decent pictures.
Thursday the 23rd was our last day here and Eric and Helma joined us in a drive to the Borrego Bad
Lands. Some interesting landscapes.
Until next time,
Dave and Sandy
