4 days in the desert for work, a rental truck with unlimited milage, and a big tank of gas..

Anza Borrego State Park

A few pictures taken while crossing Anza Borrego State park on the way home. If you come out to California and want to see the desert, this is where you want to go. Much more beautiful and diverse than the larger Mojave Desert east of Los Angeles. This is a "cactus desert" with a LOT of cactus. It's about an hour and a half drive east of San Diego, just across the mountains.
