Back on the Road After Some SoCal Living

---

Madison and I have reunited after spending a week in Southern California with our friends. We were spoiled with lots of treats and down time at the beach. Madison lived the Hollywood life for a while and I roughed it in Joshua Tree climbing around on big rocks. Our friends took great care of us knowing that we had been living out of a van for a few weeks. Thanks Arielle, Mara, Lane, and Jason! We're so grateful for a restful week, but we're definitely happy to be on the road together again. As I type this, we're driving into Sequoia National Park! Enjoy some of the pictures from this past week and we'll post again soon!

I am a tiny speck sitting on top of this giant rock.

We made it!
Lane and I at the top of a four-pitch trad route in Joshua Tree. What an experience.

Margarita night!
