Q. Moon 1987 Journal 61 13 May Dorner's Camp, Granite Mountains, San Bernardino co., CA. Bruce and I have been at Dorner's camp so far today. I've been catching up on some writing and Bruce has been all of last weekend's newspapers. He also worked on the transmission in his car; it needed a new pan gasket. While working on the motor he found a woodrat that had taken up residence there for a while. This morning a man from National Geographic came over to ask us about where he might find some Chuckwallas, snakes, or Kit Foxes to photograph. We talked to him for about half an hour about the animals he was looking for and about his photographing techniques. Outside it was sunny during the morning with occassional breezes until midday. Then clouds blew over from the east and brought some lightning and thunder which lasted for about an hour. Now its 1600 PST and sunny, ~30°c, and about 50% cloud cover. Bruce just got his car started. Did nothing exciting for the rest of the night.
