Oct 14, 2005

Leaving Las Vegas--looking for Laura's lost journal. No luck--Laura said if someone has it they won't be able to read it. Arrived at Joshua Tree National Park (CA) right at sundown. We picked up some items for a picnic dinner and went in search of a campsite. Spoke to the ranger and he said that we'd have to pay $5.00 for a campsite-even if sleeping in our car. Well--we have never seen so many people camping. Finally, we had some luck at the 3rd campsite. We enjoyed a little fried chicken some wine and then got our car ready for bed. Actually, this was our best nights sleep in the car. We felt totally safe--all the other campers around and it wasn't too cold/hot.
