We left Tombstone this morning at 9:30 am MST and crossed over into California at 2:20 pm PST. We are at Hidden Beaches RV resort right on the Colorado River, and aside from an aquaduct we passed in Arizona, it is the first water we have seen. I think the hidden beach is actually the riverbank.
It was nice to see the color green again. There are farms with crops growing, citrus trees, etc. The desert and prairie we went through was colorless, well, brown and sand. There was some green when we saw seguarro cactus, but most were a mix of brown and light green.
We are only about 215 miles from Los Angeles. If we had traveled due West from Tombstone we could have been in San Diego. We are two to three hours from Palm Springs, Joshua Tree National Park, the Salton Sea, and Yuma. We might go to one or two during the next two days.
So now that we are on Pacific Standard Time we are 3 hours behind the East coast and 2 hours behind Texas.
Glad we have a roof top satellite dish. It automatically sets itself up, we just have to adjust for time changes to watch our shows.
Stop and see the Andreas Fault line
