Walked the beach where there were about 7 other people "practicing and exercising" social distancing. I believe we'll bring the 4 dogs next weekend, weathr permitting.

Headed back west on the 111 to the 86... to the 111 again hitting Aldi's in Palm Desert... finding what I've been looking for for weeks: Bread Yeast. Got a bread machine and like making my own pizza dough.

With the exception of a couple local store runs I hadn't been out of the house to "down the hill" for a couple of weeks. The drive along the 111 through Indio, La Quinta, Indian Wells, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, Cathedral City, then Palm Springs and seeing all the closed business really was eye opening. But, you know... If just one life is saved.

Returned home around 4P. What a great day.
Sounds like fun! Wish I was there. I've been driving the New Beetle convertible It's the 18t model. A really great southwest US example. (that said, it has had so many little things that broke, some of them crazy expensive.) Probably gonna load up my dog and go for a top down ride today. We're allowed in AZ. 80 degrees today!:ah:
