Borrego Springs
Borrego Springs,
California: This morning we put everything away, stowed our
satellite dishes and pointed the Magna Peregrinus south to Borrego
Springs. The drive is just over one hour - over some terrible roads - but
the destination is simply wonderful. You may recall
we
visited Borrego Springs in January 2007. We had such a great time, we
wanted to return.
You may/may not be sad/happy to learn we had cloudy weather today and I
actually had to wear a (very light) sweater! When we checked-into our
campsite, I really thought it was going to rain - the skies grew dark and we
could hear thunder in the distance. Fellow campers told us it was raining in
San Diego... but so far, no rain. We do, however, expect rain. Know why?
Because we just had our bus washed, that's why!

The RV resort,
The Springs at
Borrego, is a beautiful campground with two especially fabulous
features: a regulation golf course and several hot tubs filled with natural
hot water bubbling up from an on-site spring. (Thus, the name of the town.)

I watched (college basketball) GW lose to Maryland. (Excuse
me, it was a slaughter!) Then, we watched the Ducks beat Kansas State at Mac
Court. Until my next update, I remain, your Borrego Springs correspondent.

nice. I will be posting more photos this week.
