A photo story

A rocky hillside in the Mojave

I looked out from a rocky hillside over the Mojave Desert in California, in November 2023. The flats ran out toward a line of mountains in the distance, with low brush on the sand and a blue sky with a few thin clouds. It was morning, around 55, with a light breeze around 3 miles an hour.

I took this from the rocks in the foreground, looking across that open desert. This was the morning after I set up the solar panels on the travel trailer.
