Lazy Lizard Saloon

I still have yet to leave California, instead choosing to hang around with the small Airstream crowd that have continued to let me “van-up” the place. Last night, we… …instead of me writing up a blog post describing what happened, let me just send you off to Aluminarium who does...

Separated from sunrise

Ricardo Breceda sculptures

Surrounding Borrego Springs is more than 100 sculptures, all part of an enormous outdoor gallery of Ricardo Breceda’s visions of creatures that once roamed this part of California. A more dedicated photographer might visit the sculptures during ideal lighting – over many mornings and evenings – to capture the full...

Font’s Point

I appear to be one of the last to head out and explore Font’s Point in the Borrego Springs State Park. I kept hearing stories of the sunsets from the view point that overlooks the badlands, and on one of the final nights in Borrego Springs the trek was made....

Desert shindig

Two and a half days of driving and I have arrived at my Southern California layover in (or just outside of) Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. This stop was not initially on my itinerary but after seeing the Malimish family was hanging out in the area I thought I would pop...

The return to way of the goose

My van (not me) has been sitting in northern California since before Thanksgiving while I finished off my 2014 plans. At noon on the 1st I officially turned Big Blue to the South to make my next scheduled stop in Quartsite, Arizona. There I meet up with other van-dwellers for...
