One Year Ago – 3D Camping

paso-robles-3d.pngAbout a year ago, we rented a trailer from Cruise America and took a trip up the California coastline as far as Monterey and came back down US 101 through Paso Robles and San Luis Obispo. We visited several missions and stayed at RV parks along the way.

When were camping at Paso Robles, I took a pair of images for a possible 3D picture of the rented trailer. I found those pictures in an archive and decided to combine them into a 3D image this evening. Click on the image to enlarge – you will need your pair of 3D glasses to see the stereo effect.

Of course, if you don’t have your 3D glasses, you can view the 2D image here.

Lake Pleasant Panorama

We had some spare time today, so we decided to take a drive out to Lake Pleasant in North Maricopa County, Arizona. It was really too hot to have a picnic like we originally intended, so we drove up to the visitors center and took some pictures. I made this panoramic image that shows only a portion of the lake from Bass Bay on the left to the New Waddell Dam on the right. Click on the thumbnail image for the full panorama – remember to use the scroll bars to pan the image left and right.

A Blog in the Park

park-blog.jpgWe arrived at our new Arizona town this morning. After checking the contents of the PO box, we met with the Realtor to go over some of the latest details of our project. When we were done with that, it was almost lunch time so we went to the grocery store and bought a couple of salads for lunch. We then went to the park and had a picnic.

Later, we met with our builder to finalize the layout of the house on our lot. He had some suggestions to accommodate some of our preferences on layout of the house and attached garage. We also worked out a plan to build an RV pad with full hookups.

After all the chores were done, it was still too early to check in to our room so we went back to the park and blogged. The image is us in the park with Bear. Click to enlarge.

Among the Yuccas

One of the things Verna likes is to take photos of flowers and gnarly things. With giant yucca trees she gets both. I took this picture while she was taking pictures of the yuccas in Wickenburg, Arizona. Click on the image to enlarge.

Another Picnic Today

Yipee! We got to have another picnic today. Lots of new news since this one was in a place called Quartzsite. My hoomins had salad with left over steak for lunch. I got to snack on the left over steak too. Click us to make us big.
