After doing some laundry we headed for the golf course. It was very windy and hot...83 to be exact. We played nine long holes, most being par 5's. It was a fun morning. We had lunch at a local cafe that has a very good reputation. Apparently the owner grew tired of the computer business and bought this small restaurant. Both she and her husband cook and wait on the six tables.A drive through the Mojave Desert with high winds provided some fascinating scenery as the dust could be seen blowing from miles away. We ended up in Barstow, a town that is half way between Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Just outside Barstow we visited an old mining town called Calico Ghost Town. Silver was discovered there in the early 1800's. It is now an authentic Wild West Town where you can imagine its past as you roam the streets.
We settled in to the Barstow/Calico KOA for the night. Tomorrow we head for Sequoia National Forest.
