Camping in the Desert!

We just got back from a little trip away to the desert. We went to Palm Canyon in Borrego Springs. We had a great time with Chris' Aunt and Uncle (Eric and Kathe) on some jeep trails and getting our mountain bikes dirty! But who ever said the best time to go to the desert is winter??? It was HOT! (I've got the sunburn to prove it :) Chris and I got a chance to sneak away for a couple hours and go hike to the Palm Canyon Oasis - a palm tree grove and a natural spring hidden behind the mountains! We didn't see any longhorn sheep, (a famous spot for seeing these amazing, sure-footed animals) but it was sure worth the hike!
