Leaving the desert this morning to head back to LA for a couple days. It’s a little sad but I’m so glad I was able to come out here. I was originally planning on visiting the Channel Islands, but Joshua Tree has been amazing.
From now until Friday when I need to catch my train I won’t have any transportation or much to do, so I’ll probably sit down and go through my pictures to find which ones I want to post.

Here’s a Joshua tree with the town of Joshua Tree in the background
guys I took some amazing pictures in Joshua Tree yesterday

Here’s a really basic photo for now but at some point I’ll find some of the really nice ones to share
700 posts! - I have landed in California so here we go. I know LA is supposed to be big but man the scale really is crazy when you see it in person. Maybe I also just don’t have much experience with cities, who knows. I can’t really give many impressions / thoughts yet cause it’s been dark but I’ve also been up for 23 hours now so I don’t really know what’s going on. It’s 4:30 according to my body right now so I’m going to go to bed for now - but my adventures on the west coast shall begin tomorrow!
I did it. Today is July 1st which means I am finally officially employed at a full time job.
In other news I bought an Amtrak ticket this morning for two weeks from today and I’m really excited for that!
not to get too political but it is a bit frustrating that people are just now realizing the 80 year old is 80 years old
we still have four months and I don’t think things are official yet, can we please pivot now and find someone who won’t cause the country to be run into the ground
I was frustrated four months ago when I voted in the primaries (no one else cared then!) and I’m just as frustrated now. Partisanship is actively killing our country and no one cares!
okay I’ll shut up until something else makes me mad
I think it’s about time for some Bahamas pictures, don’t you?

This is when I first got to the beach after landing, right before it poured
Day 16 - the end

This was the day we reached our destination. I still do miss being on the road
Day 15

I may have fallen asleep without posting last night but there aren’t really any good pictures from this day anyway. So you get two posts today to end this series.
