Where are we today ?
This morning perfect weather again. Right of the bat at 7 am I am shorts and t shirt. Walkabout and a drive about town to explore a bit like I usually do. but we had more important things to do today, Wanna go find the big stone snake in the hills behind us.Now you have to know we are not hikers. I like my walkabouts but no so much Suzie. She is fine with that but when I wanna hike not a good idea to go alone.
So she put on her shoes and backpack and we headed on out. Water bottles and hiking sticks.
Parked the car a heading over that hill |
up we go |
It was the last 20 feet over the top and the rest was easy.
Made it and here it is ! Yahoo ! |
Up close and personal |
Found the snake now to find Suzie and head back down with her.
She still there waiting for me and we head back down the hill to the car.we were up there a tiny Flag at the top |
tasty lunch |
Also picked up 6 gallons of water so I could have a shower, we are getting low.
I whipped on down the road to pick up some very tasty oranges from a roadside stand. What a deal, 5 LB bag only $3.00 and they are soo good !
so fresh a juicy |
Time for a cold one and I tried this very very tasty!
so peaceful, sunny and warm, love it ! |
inside temps but quite nice outside in the shade |
add a caesar salad and did the trick |
Thanks for stopping by!
Check out the interactive map below to see where we have been this Fall and Winter..
Holy cow, good job on the hike. Now, if you just continue to do that, and a little more every couple of days, next thing you know you'd be hiking like us!

We working on it, even just the walking is nice. I usually get a couple miles walking or more everyday.
DeleteGlad you found that snake! I've seen so many different pictures of it.
ReplyDeleteI have seen the pictures too, but is nicer to see in person.
DeleteHow do you juice your oranges?
ReplyDeleteWe usually eat them, but have a hand juicer if we want.
DeleteI'll be anxious to check out all the animals and the snake at Borrego Springs. Thanks for taking us along.
ReplyDeleteIt is a fun place to explore, we enjoyed it before and are enjoying it again.
DeleteGlad you found the snake, that's such a great deal on the oranges, we got the grapefruit and they are excellent.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the directions to the snake, think we took the hard way up.
DeleteIt was a deal on everything there.
Oh darn Susie. You missed one of the wonders of the world. Hehe
ReplyDeleteShe wanted to see it, but we hits a very difficult section on the climb and she did not feel comfortable going any further. I got the pictures though and saw it in person.
Deletewe haven't found the snake yet but fortunately there is still time for us ;)
ReplyDeleteNice to head out for the hike and find it, really cool.
DeleteNice hike and a cool snake. Chorizo burgers, hmmm sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteThe hike was wonderful and the burger very tasty too.
DeleteHave yet to do the 'Snake Hike', but have seen pictures you and others have taken. Looks like a great destination for a day hike.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great hike and wonderful that we finally found it !
DeleteWow pretty big snake!!! Looks like things are fantastic. Lucky you guys aren't here it is -23 degrees Yuck!!
ReplyDeleteThings are awesome! 85f here, love it.
DeleteCool snake, we'd like it to see it in person too. Won't be afraid of that one! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was great to finally find it, pretty tame it was.
DeleteI'm so glad I introduced you to Mexican chorizo. So I see you did not go from where the RV is but drove to the spot we talked about, yes? I had a great time again visiting with you guys. I also see you liked my idea of the beer & tomato juice. Still safer than a martini.
ReplyDeleteYes it was all good, and the beer yep that's the safe bet for me.
DeleteLove that Mexican Chorizo, so tasty.
Congrats on the successful hike, including Suzie. I think 90 percent of the way is a good thing. Love looking at those temperatures, while we still have snow trying to melt in our 50 degree days.
ReplyDeleteThank I think she did pretty well too.
DeleteWe loving these temps.
Thank I think she did pretty well too.
DeleteWe loving these temps.

ReplyDeleteIts not going to far been there for years lol...
