Below
are some camping rigs...
The
club's Saturday morning golfing session didn't go as planned!
There was a tournament going on at the Lone Pine golf course...
that we weren't told about when we called for reservations.
So...our golfers did the best they could...
on the putting green and driving range!

And
when Judy and I got there...daughter Heidi, son-in-law Stephen...
and granddaughters Haley and Hanna were there waiting.
They'd left Ridgecrest at 7 AM in 55-deg weather...
to ride their Harleys up to the Bristlecone Pines in the
White Mountains east of Big Pine.
Mike Moore...who's known Heidi for years...
pointed out that you don't often see a woman riding two-up --
like Heidi and daughter Hanna!

dice games:
Ship, Captain, Sailor...something-or-others....

It's not the most flattering picture
of Cheryl...
but it shows the "Cheeze Whiz" she and Josh are sharing!
YUCK!!!!!... ;-(
There's
Lake Diaz...the source of all the night-visiting raccoons!...
As
Judy and I were leaving the picnic...
up the road a mile or so...Joe's bike was broken down
-- wouldn't turn over.
They'd lifted the tank, etc. looking for broken wires.

We
tried to push start Joe's bike down hill...against the traffic...
...only
to be caught immediately by the HighWay Patrol!!!! SIGH!...
The
officer was very polite and understanding...
wanting to be sure we had water...and a plan.

The
plan was to move the bike back to the campsite...
and wait for Jim to return with his motorhome and lift.
