Our "tails" are finally in California and we are SO HAPPY to be out of the desert!!! The parks we visited there were beyond worth it--but it was getting quite hot--like 116 and such. Craziness.
We had a wonderful time with Justin's Great Aunt Pat (who truly is great by the way!) in Phoenix, AZ--who graciously treated us to a lovely dinner, laundry, showers, a delicious breakfast, great conversation, and air conditioning--THANK YOU AUNT PAT!!!! We love you.
We left Aunt Pat's yesterday for Joshua Tree National Park in California. We thoroughly enjoyed the Joshua Trees as we drove through the park and then high-tailed it out of the DESERT--phew. We made it to Bakersfield, CA last evening and checked in to the DoubleTree which just happened to be right across the street from one of our favorite restaurants...Costco. We enjoyed a familiar and delicious dinner out at Costco (and dessert of course) and headed back to continue to recover from our days in the desert (and dessert of course).
Today, we're off to Sequoia National Park!!! This is one of the one's with the AWESOME trees--we're so excited! We'll camp there and then trek around King's Canyon before we head to Yosemite. Stay tuned for more tales California!
Thank you all for following along with us in our adventure. We hope you're enjoying!
Grace and peace,
Justin and Lori
