Death Valley National Park, California: When I took the daily Camping Journal orders to the teeny Death Valley Post Office, the Post Mistress, Jackie, finally asked me what I was shipping with her each morning! Imagine her surprise when she learned I operate my business from a motorhome complete with internet, a postage meter and a label printer. Jackie is very friendly and seems to know most of her customers by name. It takes a very hale individual to live in Death Valley year round. The sun really shines here. Today our solar panel on the roof of the bus was giving us a world-record amount of power:

Our second chore of the day was to move campsites. When I booked our reservations several weeks ago, Furnace Creek Campground was so full we were unable to reserve a site for the entire four nights... so today we moved to a campsite a few feet away. Whatever. It gave us a chance to empty our holding tanks and fill-up with fresh water again on the way. We even found a coyote on his way to the recycling center.

Then we went golfing - on a golf course that guarantees your "lowest round" because the Furnace Creek Golf Course is the lowest (in elevation) golf course in the world! Isn't that just a hoot?

The Lowest Golf Course on Earth"






Tonight I am preparing Greek Pasta... the same thing I cook every time we camp at Furnace Creek Campground. Along with a Greek Salad - it is a perfect ending to another great visit to Death Valley National Park.
PS: my lowest round was not technically my lowest round. I shot 123. Terrible. DT reminded me it was the first time I have played all year. He is the best caddy a girl could ever have.
Until my next update, I remain, your tired correspondent.
