February 7th

We woke up to a beautiful morning, the sun is out and the weather is warm.  Wait a minute we are in the desert it is suppose to be warm.  Maybe that's why we like it down here so much.  We put the dogs out so they could get done what ever they do.  Turbo was running after Molly and the other two were just looking around.  We had a great breakfast, feed the dogs and put the three back in the house. 
Then it was time for us to go for a little ride to North County Yamaha, we need to pick up some parts that I promised a customer I would have it up and running Friday afternoon.  We also just wanted to go for a ride.  We like to do that every once in a while.  We like to see the area around here plus see some other parts of this state.
We headed out of Salton City and headed up what they call Devils grade.
This looks steep, but not to bad.  We went from 210 feet below sea level to over 4500 feet above sea level.
This is looking back down towards the Borrego Springs.

It is amazing how the area changes the farther up the pass we got.  It was a great drive over to North County Yamaha.
We found this great art after we left the Yamaha shop.  A lot of work went into building this.

It is neat to drive around see the sites and art we find along the sides of the road.  We had a great day driving around and seeing the sites.
This billboard was neat and we both laughed when we seeing it.
Cyndy liked the looks of this tree, me it looks like a tree that is wintering in the desert and waiting for spring rains.
Here we go back down into the desert, the city below is Palm Springs.  We had a great drive and headed back home.
