725 February 9-10, 2022 Oyster Shell Wash

On Wednesday, we finished our morning exercise and prepared for our last Borrego Springs overnight adventure.  We drove to Fish Creek Wash and did a little exploring.

The very best campsite was at the end of Oyster Shell Wash.  There was a sweet little canyon at the end of the trail.  Before getting set up, we took a hike.

The walls on either side were high.  We walked about a half mile and could see the canyon continued to wrap around.

We returned to camp and got organized.  When we finally settled, the first thing I noticed was the silence and I began to relax.

We had a simple dinner of hummus and raw vegetables and smoked salmon with whole grain crackers.

We were listening to Pandora.  Every time we have been out, we have heard the Eagles song, Peaceful Easy Feeling.  It describes precisely how we feel out there.  One year ago, we purchased this roof top tent.  In that time, we have absolutely enjoyed the opportunity to sleep in some beautiful, remote, and special places.

The moon was more than half full and very bright, causing the canyon walls and the white sand to glow. 

We returned to the RV on Thursday with messy hair, smelling of campfire smoke, in desperate need of showers, and with happy hearts.
