Those hot pools at Sam's are sounding mighty appealing right now -- the temperatures are dropping here in Ashland, although we're still getting plenty of sunshine. It's been a long and beautiful autumn. We're making our plans to head south just after New Year's -- I just made reservations at Anza Borrego for late February. Maybe we'll get to see you yet! :-) Laurel (www.ravenandchickadee.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09133248112440273123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5213114113819017671.post-64193982462834296262014-11-19T11:27:55.480-08:002014-11-19T11:27:55.480-08:00I would love to see Whitewater when it's flowi...I would love to see Whitewater when it's flowing like crazy!

It looked like you are enjoying that fast paced game which I think is a good workout. <br />Thanks for the review, we will try this park once we get back to CA. <br />That's a great shot of a CA desert sunset.
