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. :lol:

If it had been cold, I would have been more protected by socks.

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)
