After almost 2 months of not being able to get out to the desert I finally took a day off and went out to enjoy one of the last hottest days of summer we will have. Temps showed 108 on my truck in Ocotillo, not really hot but I will take it....Here are some photos of the progress of the Ocotillo Wind project, it pretty much made me sick and broke my heart. I feel so bad for the residents of Ocotillo.

Welcome to Ocotillo Ca, home to the new Wind Energy Facility

Yes these are being constructed right next to peoples homes. This is at the sharp left curve as you leave town.

Ummm..yeah, pretty much limited now...thanks BLM...

I pretty much got lost on Dos Cabezas Rd not recognizing anything since they have modified it so heavily, here is where I was supposed to turn but could not because of the burm build up, ended up back tracking and going another way.

Bob...here is what the desert looks like now from your morning coffeee spot in Piedras Grandes

I have more on Piedras Grandes but will post that separately.
