Back to our Travels

For the few readers who are not interested in Diana’s children and grandchild, thanks for hanging in there! While Diana was in San Diego, Randy escaped the heat of Indio at beautiful Pinyon Flat campground, up scenic Hwy 74 at 4000 feet. Diana joined him there later. We met several interesting folks--Randy is a master at “getting the story.”



When the weather cooled off, we went down to hill to Painted Canyon Road near Mecca, CA. We settled into a wash for the night and hiked the canyon the next day. Impressive!


This tiny town, Mecca, is all Mexican in population, language, flags and flavors. Like a Mexican village transplanted.
