Carol & I met for breakfast with her friend K.C.; had breakfast, packed up the car, and headed for Joshua Tree National Park in Indio, California. We arrived in Indio at 4 pm, and set up the camper. I just could not back in, so Carol & I were going to push it in, when the guy next door came over and helped us. We are staying at Indian Wells RV Resort, and so far everyone has been really nice. The only problem is that we can't figure out how to open the door to the restrooms.
Let me backtrack a little. Along the way, we passed the Salton Sea which was a really sad sight. It used to be a huge salt lake in the middle of this desert. But it has been drying up for years and is now just a tiny lake, with miles and miles of salt so thick on the ground that it looks like snow. And the sunsets in the mountains are amazing.
After getting the camper set up, we set out to find someone who could help us bust into the restrooms. We located some senior citizens having a spaghetti supper and one of them explained how the gate handle works. We drove into Indio to have dinner at the Wok About Chinese restaurant. The food was excellent, but each dish was enough to feed two. Then we stopped at the Cardenas grocery store where all the aisles were labelled in Spanish and bought some food for breakfast for the next two days, and some ice. We are making no-cook oatmeal for breakfast.
