May 6, 2007: Mojave Desert, California.
Our route home took us through the desert in southern California. We stopped in the town of Blythe and camped in a spot along the lower Colorado River.
We made the last stop of our trip in Joshua Tree National Park, where some of the last of the disappearing giant yuccas can still be found. It was a sad night for us, not because we were pondering the demise of the tree, but because our trip has come to an end...
In the morning we drove back to Los Angeles, our point of origin. We had driven about 18,000 miles in a giant loop through 36 states and 3 Canadian provinces (plus a quick plane ride to Nicaragua).
Our next great adventure will be the upcoming year in our new home: sunny Seattle. We'll let you know if it deserves a blog. Come visit us.
THE END.

First of all, stop calling it camping. Last night I ate a loaf of french bread while little bugs kept dropping on my head, then I got in the tent and the cows mooed all night, then the very hot sun beat down at six thirty. Call yours parking with air con and a shower.
You need a Seattle blog for sure.
I read the Graham Parson biography recently. Joshua Tree is a minor character.
Good job kids! Don't sell the motorhome.
man, i'm sad this is over.
wow, seattle! how exciting! it would be great to see you again soon, and i haven't been to seattle in 15 years...
Wow, that was awesome. You definitely need to continue blogging from Seattle.
Thanks for posting all of these great pictures and observations from your trip!
