Finding myself in the Desert
For mid-winter break I took myself to the desert. I wanted to see the stars, hike, and relax. 2/14 Flight out of SEA got delayed so the plans to take myself out for a drink on Valentines day were slashed. Got to my airbnb, ordered door dash and crashed. Woke up Sunday morning, back to airport and off to rental car location. 2/15 Drove to Amboy Crater in The Mojave Desert. The Desert itself is beautiful and striking and completely worth the drive. The crater itself was a great hike, certainly do-able for most people (not mobility aid accessible- the trails are sand). Steep at the crater, because it's a crater but at just over 3 miles total, it was a great break to move my legs after so much driving. After the crater I continued my drive down to 29 Palms which I would call home for the next 2 nights. Picked up some new car snacks, breakfast and lunch for the next 2 days before getting to my airbnb. Great private location on 2.5 acres in the desert...
