actually high desert nomad, but it feels a bit like it
Arrived in Palm Desert yesterday and it is definitely different to the coast. 99 miles from the RV dealer and I was shattered at the end of the drive - 40ft bus plus another 20ft of car and hitch behind, first time driving it on the freeways with idiots coming by on both sides, other big trucks and some of the worst road surfaces since Victoria.....
The dealers threw in a membership to a camping club so we are staying on one of their reserves for 9 nights - have power, water and sewage hookups at the site, its less crammed in than at Newport beach, lots of palm trees and isn't costing us anything. Sunsets have been spectacular
and warm enough for an early supper outside - still working our way through the steaks we bought a month ago, on charcoal. Maria is getting really good at a simple coleslaw - red and green cabbage, lots of carrot and just enough dressing to coat it after a good swirl round, plus potato salad with Heinz Salad Cream :-) and the sound of cicadas in the background.
