Regretfully today is our departure day from Anza Borrego Desert State Park. This visit is definitely going to be one of our favorite stops in the entire tour, and I think we are all sorry to have to leave after only eight days.

Right now we are packing up in prep for our haul back over the mountains to San Diego. There's a lot of pack up: bicycles, chairs, firewood, office equipment, etc. We don't usually spread out so much during a stop, but this was a relatively long one.

If we can, we will stop in Julian on the way over, at 4000 ft. Tonight we'll meet up with some Airstream friends and courtesy park. I hope it's not raining over there. California has been getting drenched but we've had warm temperatures and sunshine every day. It will be an adjustment to go back to real weather!
