Our two weeks in Pinnacles National Park went by too quickly.  Still difficult to believe there was a place so remote in the middle of California!  I need to have a plan to better view the Condors when we visit the next time.

Today we moved to Bakersfield, CA.  The 188.2 miles (81,015.4 miles total) went smoothly once we cleared the narrow roads leading away from Pinnacles.  I'm afraid it was almost depressing driving into Bakersfield with all of the oil pumps, but the sun was out and it was a nice warm day.


Of course, the reason for our stop was a quick visit with Maggie and Jim, Joani's aunt and uncle.  Maggie had us over for a great dinner. Joani's cousin, Mindy, and her three grown kids joined us and we all had a great time talking and reminiscing around the table.
