114 DEGREES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Didn't spend a long time in Yuma, but did see the historical Yuma Territorial Prison which was in operation for only 30 years. Inmates included those arrested for polygamy, affairs outside the marriage, and of course, murderers, sex offenders, robbers, etc. The cells were all exposed to the outside air --- gads, what a hell hole!
From Yuma, on our way into California, we stopped at the historic plank road which, yesteryear, allowed vehicles to travel over the Sand Dunes. Today, in the distance is a VERY long fence that separates Mexico from California.
We celebrated our return to California by camping out at a State Park in Carlsbad, overlooking the ocean --- the roar of the ocean, the smell of the ocean air and the cooler weather was simply intoxicating. We were delirious!
While in Southern California we will be visiting a number of friends. In two and a half weeks, we will be attending Ron's 55th High School Reunion in Long Beach. Should be fun.
