Update from the desert.



The Kadizzles are in Baker California, just south of Death Valley. We just spent about two days at the Kelso sand dunes. Yesterday featured an eight mile hike from four thousand feet up to six thousand, three hundred feet. The view was great. A couple days ago we hiked in the New York Mountains. Today's big dicision is to go to Death Valley, or to go back over by the New York Mountain. The wind is terrible today, so we are having a hard time figuring out what to do. Lord Kadizzle is ready to move on, but The Commander loves the New York Mountains and insist we return.

When we tried to thaw the hamburger two days ago it took a coyote about ten minutes to show up. Luckily I saw his reflection in the window and we saved the meat. A man camping nearby said a coyote picked up his small dog and was running off when the two big dogs chased him down and saved the little dog. The little dog was bruised, but not hurt. Perhaps the coyote just wanted a pet.
