I don't know if you or the Nomads know that Earle Stanley Gardner was the author of the Perry Mason books.
Another useless fact that will get you a free beer in a trivia battle.

Another rare cactus---the attack cactus who seek out those who wear Birkenstocks in the desert.
Rare because most people don't wear sandals in the desert.
If it had been cold, I would have been more protected by socks.

Beautiful Mirage, Shari!
Dianne, Those Cholla babies jump right out into the road. They feed on toes.

The Perry Mason TV show royalties is how Erle financed all those great Baja explorations of the 60's...
Please see this web site I made for Choral Pepper's photos of the Erle Stanley Gardner trips to Baja: http://choralpepper.com
This site is also linked from my site (VivaBaja.com)

Aren't those called camel toes? I think we have been trekking in the
desert too long.
