Summary of day
- wonderful night at Petroglyph Rec. Area. Wonderful is too weak a word to describe this place.
- wonderful drive through the desert to Ely. On the way i found the place where we almost bivouacked in 2001.
- arrived in Ely at 1 and did errands and chores, oil change, laundry, restocking, etc.
- arrived at spectacular Cave Lake State Park outside of Ely at 5:30 and got the same great site, 29, we had in 2001
- spent a long time just looking up at the billions of stars and galaxies in the sky
- lit a celebration fire and thought of the sheer joy Leben and Erde brought me over the 13 years since we were last here in 2001.
Photos..
Our wonderful camp in the desert at Petroglyph Rec. Area. The cowboys never had it so good.
The view from the hill behind our camp...breathtaking.
Another view...also breathtaking
Erde leading the way back to camp after the day's hike. She always loved to take the lead, and her tracking skills are just as keen as they have always been. All i said to her was, Erde, let's go home, and off she went.
What kind of tree is this?
I love to just watch this beautiful dog sleep. After 13.5 years of giving me joy, happiness, laughs, companionship, etc., she deserves all the sleep she wants to get. What an absolute joy she is to have on this trip, in my life.
A close up if what i mean
Our camp was right at the base if those two hills...
Why do i need to go to NY for opera when i can cone here in Eureka?
Our camp site with a wonderful balcony view if the sky at Cave Lake.
The sun setting from our balcony at Cave Lake, just as i remembered it from 13 years ago. We have the exact same site. After this, the stars came out, millions, maybe billions, of them. Awesome.
Ed and Erde, On The Road
