Camping in Joshua Tree

We got up before the sun and drove 2.5 hours into the desert, we’re going camping with the REI. 

I get excited every time I see the windmills by Palm Spring, we were so busy talking about them this time so we missed our exit and had to do a little 6 mile detour.

Got to our site around 9 am and set up camp. It was already hot by then.

REI had a few events planned out for us, one of them was Geocaching. We got coupled up, handled a GPS receiver and sent off to the desert to find things, it was super fun!

Once we found everything that was to be found we headed back to camp for lunch and chill in the shade.

We did rock climbing in the afternoon. I’ve never done it before but it was awesome! I can see myself getting into that, but I think I’ll stick to ski and golf.

Look, I do stuff!

WTF Nathan!

We found an elephant!
