Today Mary and I decided to sleep in and chill out. We decided we would rent a car and go to Desert Tower. I found a really good rate on the Rental Car and
jumped on it. Alice looked really nicely, lettuce bar her car to drive down to the rental place. I ended up renting on August 11 and 12th And the guy was really
cool and sent us the power way from the location that I was at at Miramesa. So he called the place at Poway and Poway gave me the same price as Mira mesa Hertz place. we really enjoyed
this place. I’ve been there before and we first got there. The guy said the place was closed and Mary was good enough and smart enough to call the guy and he went right
from his house which is 300 yards away from the tower, so we got to go into the tower pay the 950 each and wanted around the tower. That was really cool. I
really like the place I always get a kick out. It has some funky roadhouse attraction vibe to it it’s very old school. He was telling us stories about people would stop
because they had to cause their cars would overheat and they needed to stop in and get water, etc. It was really fun and we saw the border wall went by Jacumba Springs and really enjoyed our time up here I’m glad I got to show Mary this once in a blue moon kind of place. anyhow, the
drive back was smooth. The sunset was pretty cool. You got back
around 9:00 PM. Mary went upstairs asleep and I helped Dallas and we watched
shimmer Lake again. I love watching it. It’s really cool show. It’s fun to watch more than once to figure out what really is going on and how the sheriff manipulated people along with his baby mama Steph.
What today is Monday. I inadvertently completely erased
yesterday‘s blog posting which really sucks because I’m gonna have to reconstructing it totally out of memory. That’s a pain in the
butt. Well I got up early with Alice I walked with her to walk the dog it was overcast with fog and after she left to go to work for an hour and a half I took
a nap. That was good I then talked on the phone for a while and then decided to
send myself off to Jacumba Springs which I visited last time or two times ago with Alice. Anyway I’m not in a purely rock area I
don’t know where that is so I’m gonna go further west or east that is. I also went to the
Mexican border which was pretty forbidding. Before I did that, I
had I had to hit the last gas last chance gas station take care of business because
there’s no gas station bathroom anywhere nearby. I didn’t find the
springs but I did find a border and it was very intense.. The border was really
intense and for boating. It’s like the desert wild isn’t it desert but looks lonely and a bit scary and
empty. After that I went to the desert tower. I wasn’t sure it was still there. This place
is a real trip. It is tower made of rocks overlooking the desert. It
was built in the late 20s to commemorate the settling of the west toward discovery
of the west. It was to all dudes there with a several dogs just
chilling out. There’s a whole complex there with houses that look kind
of rundown and very flat. They charge me 750 to go up to tower and I went up
there and took a lot of pictures and video made videos. It’s a pretty bizarre place I really liked it though. So after I went there I decided to go to Calexico because it was the closest place that I could go to was thinking to going to Yuma but you might was too far away and I wanted to get back as closeto 6 PM or before sunset as possible. Well Calexico was that a tourist Mecca. It’s kind of a weird little place with long buildings
not much going on there a little Bizzarre because I’m not used to it. I didn’t stay there long I took pictures of signs of it and then drove back. The drive back was really nice because the sunset was really cool so I pulled over about three or four times just to take pictures and videos of the cool exciting desert sunset. It’s something I don’t see very often.
I arrived back at the house at 6 o’clock just as I wanted to. So the total of 2 Hour Dr. to get to Calexico which is a combination of California and Mexico just like Mexicali is a cop is a combination of Mexico and California. Anyhow I came home and wheels I didn’t exercising and because of that I didn’t feel so good for a
little bit. It was a fun and exciting trip. But I was left with some lingering
sadness because of stuff in my head and words from other
