The day started out cloudy.  The over night low was 44 degrees and the high was 71 degrees.  The sun came out and the afternoon was beautiful.  At 2:00 PM we took a trip up Cistern Road, BLM 727 trail, to look at ocotillos that were blooming.  We got to a place where some one had spelled out "HI CHOPPERS" with rocks where the army helicopters fly over.  The views on the trail were nice and the ocotillos were real green with pretty blossoms.  We stopped at an old turquoise mine at the top of a steep hill.  Some of the washes were tricky to cross and the hill up and down from the mine was steep and twisty. We returned on Ferguson Road.  I went for mail when we got back and when I returned to camp went to Happy Hour at Jack and Millies.  We had a camp fire and it was a beautiful evening.  Quite a few stayed until quite late.  We met friends of Bob and Doris, Rob and Lorrie who came into day.  I got back from the camp fire at 9:00 and watched the Olympics.
