The rock is trying to eat Xander! Oh No! Mike and Xander Our campsite Near Queen Mine Exploring Queen Mine Don't laugh, I was freezing! Xander being epic with Maeby ;) Xander and Mike high above me. Maeby looking exhausted.

Our last trip to Joshua Tree we decided to camp. We camped at Jumbo Rock campground and we all had a great time exploring and climbing. Xander loves finding hiding spots:) We ended up freezing that night because we were not properly prepared, even the dog refused to climb out of her burrowed spot in the sleeping bags. But, we had fun! 

On November 11 Mike turned 30. I had a surprise party in the works, hoping to make it a memorable birthday, but through a technical gliche in our iPad he found out! We decided to cancel dinner and go on a road trip for 5 days. Our first stop was Disneyland! Then we headed to San Diego, Julian and finally the Salton Sea. This panorama is taken somewhere between Julian and the Salton Sea on CA 78 in the Anzo-Borrego State Park. We love the desert and mountains and this area had plenty of both, it was fabulous.
