Busy Days, Lots of Walking and We Meet Ivan

 

We have had a busy couple of days, Tuesday the day after our long trek across the lake bed we met fellow blogger Ivan who is parked behind us. Ivan rode his bike over in the morning and we had a really nice visit, he is very easy to talk to. It is odd that when you meet other bloggers.it is like you have a whole bunch of friends in common.

Ivan is staying in Borrego for a few days, hopefully we can get together again before he leaves.

Just as Ivan was leaving our friends Mike and Charlotte arrived from the Slab, where they had spent three weeks. We have a really big site so they were able to share it with us.

We decided to take the dogs for a walk this morning,and ended up walking to the lake bed and back,it was getting pretty warm by the time we got back and the dogs were pretty done in.

After lunch Mike came over to ask if we would show them the metal sculptures in Borrego Springs, we were happy to be tour guides and off we went in Mikes truck.
