Tecopa, CA

Hi all
Yesterday was a success!
Great trip out to Tecopa, CA
With Steve and Peggy.
The weather was wonderful
Especially for photos.

Storm coming in for Friday and Saturday
So the sky was very dramatic.


















Went to China Ranch, a date "orchard?"


And had a “Date Shake”, mmmm, yummy.
While there, Peggy, pointed out the Wise Men!

Also found some Date tree fronds and thought the patterns were so neat.

Don't tell the kids, but we found our new retirement home!





















Wandered out into the desert for a bit
On a less than well maintained road
And had some beautiful views of the Amargosa River Valley.

Checked out Tecopa Hot Springs and the RV parks.
Not a tree in sight and nothing but dirt.
I think day trips only, for us, to that area.
While there we tried to stop at Death Valley Brewing
But the brewery is only open Fri-Sun.
The little “Beer Stop” next door was open
So we hoped for a DVB beverage,


But, alas, he was sold out so we had to have bottle beer.
Although, since we were ready to kick back and enjoy
The beer was great, outdoors around the fire pit
With such great company.
We even had a local musician
Entertain us with a song.

Got back to Pahrump just as the sun set!
Home for a simple meal, photoshopping,
And early to bed.

Today,
Rain
Laundry
Minor cleaning
Quilt show in town
And some shopping.



Make your day great

Tom and Millie
