      Except for sleeping outside and roughing it objective, you are so speaking my language. lol. During my three-week "road to california" trip back in the fall of '07, Death Valley was my favorite stop -- and I was only there one morning!! I've been planning to do a short go east or go west trip this spring. I'll keep this in mind. If anything, I'd love to meet up for just a few hours and shoot, shoot, shoot.

      Shoot I will be in Yosemite at that time.....oh man......I will be so bummed out, what can I do in Yosemite? Maybe next time I can do to the desert, bring the RV that would be fun. I all ways wanted to see those moving rocks.
