It’s warming up in the desert. May has brought us a few 100 degree days
but the evenings have cooled off wonderfully.
We have had some wind but all in all it has been a wonderful month.

Mike’s sister and her husband lost their little dog this month. Everyday I think about Stoli ... I sure miss the little guy. Because of this, I know know much John and Sheri are missing Frasier. I made a quilt with a picture of their pooch for them.
Mother’s day Mike took Pat and I out for a drive around the Salton Sea. One of our stops was at “Salvation Mountain” …. A very interesting mountain made of sand and hay bales and all of it painted any color that people donate. Salvation Mountain is located in the middle of nowhere but has become someone’s passion.
Spring has brought beautiful blooms to the desert. Here in the resort is a cactus with gorgeous color…..the blooms lasted only a few days then they dried up and fell off.
Several of us went to dinner at the Augustine Casino on their “All you can eat Lobster Buffet” We did our share! We ate ….and ate ….. and ate some more. More lobster than you can imagine! It was wonderful!
We finally got the Burgundy Beauty back from the Jeep dealer. The car was using a lot of oil and they ended up replacing the engine. Mike was pleased that they replaced the engine and I was pleased that we had an extended warranty that paid completely!
It’s time to leave the desert ….. Wednesday we will begin our trek north.
