First Night in Panamint

Had a slow start getting to Death Valley....there was a screw in one of my tires and had to get it fixed before the almost 400 mile trip. 7 hours later and I was exhausted, but it was worth it. I arrived just before midnight and the party was alive with music and dancing. Everyone was dressed up and I found my sister in an orange flapper dress and matching life-vest. Another gal had on a red dress with black polka-dots, ladybug lady. Doug started off with an orange suit, then later traded it for a Jesus robe as he commanded the masses.

Checking again :)

This is Chew's Ridge. Scott drove Suzanne and I up there last year. The pic below is from Yosemite.

Checking my ability to post via my cell.

My first blog!

Here's a shot of me putting on my dance shoes. Wanted to test out the blog as I'm about to take a road trip into the desert. My sister and her boyfriend are hosting a little camp-out in Death Valley. I'm supposed to bring food, water, sleeping bag, and a crazy costume...should be interesting.
