The weather today was as predicted - cold, windy, and miserable. Thank goodness we only have one more day before we head to Santee Lakes. The wind is enough to drive one totally batty.
I tried last week to get us into Santee earlier than our planned date. We could go, but would have to change sites every day and pay the day rates each time we moved - no weekly rate - as our site was booked right up until Sunday. Also we would forfeit what we paid here - no refunds. So, we opted out. And that is why we are still sitting here in the cold and wind. As I said earlier - next year we will have a different plan.
I'm glad you made it out to Red Rock, at least for a drive. It is one of my favorite places in southern Nevada along with Valley of Fire. I'm sorry it was too cold for a hike. I like to take boots and (weather appropriate) hiking clothing along on winter trips. It is a nice time to explore the desert. I love staying in Las Vegas during the winter although I too dislike the wind. I don't go to casinos but love to explore the desert. Lots of archaeological sites out there to see!'
