Joshua Tree

You have heard the album now read the blog! I arrived in 35 deg but the temp soon calmed and I checked in for a desert camp. There is a wee wooden shop here and I asked the guy if he sold beer. By the look on his face he understood my need but alas no. However within half an hour he turned up at my site with 5 cans of ice cold Bud. Kept it and headed to the village where I had spotted an Indian restaurant. Headed back and sunk the beers in very pleasant temperatures. Fired up the comp and alas in the American way there is desert wifi!!! Still having probs with the fuel gauge so now using the satnav for fuel reading. Will get it sorted somewhere along the line. They boast of the clear sky here and I am looking up at the most amazing starlight show. Shooting stars, satellites and the Milky Way. There a a load of wee holes around here with bits of vegetation at the entrance. Will find out what they are…snakes?  There are coyote all around here too. Quite a find.
