Day 13

With half our trip behind us, today we turn the car around and begin our journey back East. We'll be traveling from Banning, CA to Kingman, AZ today. Along the way, we'll be visiting Joshua Tree National Park. I'm hoping that we'll be able to do a short hike or two, but a lot of that is going to depend on how hot it is.

Of course, I'm going to make sure that I get a picture of Josh standing next to, or under, a Joshua tree!!! He's probably going to resist that!

After we finish our tour of the park, it's on to our destination for the night, Kingman, AZ. On our first trip, four years ago, following our visit to Hoover Dam, we stayed at the same campground we'll be staying at this time ... just a little fun fact.

After spending the night in Kingman, we'll be on our way to the highlight of our trip, The Grand Canyon. More on that in the next post!
