"You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."

One year old and already so many different views from the tent. On Tomte's birthday a couple of weeks ago, we see cacti whose needles shine in the morning sun and have a view over the majestic expanse of the Anza Borrego desert when we look out of the tent.

Black & white photo of a desert landscape. Rocks are strewn about a gently sloping sandstone plateau with hardy shrubs. Low clouds hang above a mountain range in the distance, decorating an otherwise mostly clear sky.

Finding some nice photos in my archive that I should've included in older blog posts, but for whatever reason, didn't. 🤔

"Soft Colors in a Hard Landscape" from a hike in the Calcite Mine area of Anza Borrego Desert State Park, in January 2015... just 10 years ago... ouch!

An intimate landscape photo showing a rugged desert landscape with a deep canyon in the soft evening light past sunset. No sky is visible in the frame, and the deep canyon eludes the viewer from seeing its bottom.

#PhotoOfTheDay is of a shot from my Land Cruiser, driving along the flat desert of Anza Borrrego in Southern California, not far north of the Mexican border. My friend Anthony's Land Cruiser is a bit ahead of me. We were on our way to an overland gathering called Desert Rendezvous.

Two Toyota Land Cruisers zip along the flat desert, with abrupt hills on the right in the background. The view is from a GoPro camera mounted somewhere above the driver side window on the rear Land Cruiser.

Ever heard of The Slot in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park? It's a hidden gem in Southern California, and I recently had the chance to explore its otherworldly beauty. Imagine hiking through a narrow canyon with towering rock walls, sunlight filtering through the crevices, and the feeling of being transported to another planet. It's a truly awe-inspiring experience! Have you ever explored a slot canyon? 🏜️

Spent the day hiking with friends.

If you need to get outside, no place is more outside than the #AnzaBorrego desert.

This photo shows the view from Red Hill.

Emory's Rock Daisy, a small desert daisy with bright white ray flowers and yellow disk flowers.

Long time with no posts...COVID is a bitch.

Finally able to get out and about, so I hiked through the Coyote Mountains Wilderness in the #AnzaBorrego desert. Spectacular vistas in every direction.
