Feeling Toasty

[mlerules]

Wonderful wedding! It began w/"Mawiage..." - HEE! Collapsed into a heap after an early dinner last night. Skipped Quarks and much carousing. Needed sleep. Got sleep. Today featured date shakes from Hadley's in Cabazon and rain and thunder in the desert. Have managed to squeeze in a bunch of cool Nature stops on this set of adventures, including: Lassen Nat'l Park (lakes, meadows, SNOW), the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest (home of the oldest living things on Earth), and the Mojave Nat'l Preserve (desert, sky, and rocks galore). Have tons o' pics to download, sort through, and then upload.
