Sprinkler Sabotage...

Late start Thanksgiving day. Had a grande Mexican meal the night before and enough cervesa to sleep very soundly. Got into Phoenix and had to deal with a place to stealth camp. Eluded park rangers and set up on a beautiful soccer field after dark. 11pm awoken by industrial mega sized sprinklers. WTH. Glad to get out of Phoenix next day

Day 3. Packing up this morning and the Border Patrol was not pleased with my camping location   Great 6 mile downhill on interstate 8 then through the Yuhah desert and then the Imperial Valley. Flat and all agriculture. I am camped 100 yds off the road in a hay field. 81 miles today!!
