: Bad Pig With a Turkey
: Tim524 November 29, 2022, 08:16:48 PM
 It came fast this year but Thanksgiving meant it was time to head to the Desert. I cooked the turkey on Tuesday along with all the fixings and some Scooby Snacks too ;D Bad Pig got us there safe and sound again 8)

We had to pull over and wait for a buddy cause his dog didn't want to go for the ride apparently, so we chatted for a few across from Harrah's Casino  ::)

Headed up Palomar Mountain and across the Desert to our destination, set up camp and the weekend officially started on Wednesday 8)

The site wasn't as level as needed so I dug a hole for the duals to compensate, it was perfect ;) Tri-Tip on the smoker was the dinner of choice for Wednesday night :)

Early morning hike to get the day started, I usually do 3 miles but since we were in relax mode, 1 mile was good enough :D Found a cool Sun Dial on my hike,it was spot on 8)

Is there room for me next time?

Salton Sea brings back memories, used to go there as a kid and swim.

Ocotillo Wells is a blast, rode dirt bikes up blow sand, the slide and backside of blow sand.
