Today was a good day.
When we woke up this morning, it was raining. Yes, rain in the California desert.
But it soon stopped and the roads dried off. Joanne and I joined the group up and over Yaqui Pass and toward the junction of San Felipe Road. They Joanne and I turned backed while the rest of the group continued on. Back over Yaqui Pass (much slower this time) and back to Borrego Springs where we had a nice lunch.
After lunch, Joanne returned to the motel and I decided to climb Montezuma Grade. I took it much easier than Monday and had an enjoyable climb to the lookout. There I turned around and returned to the motel.
