Twentynine Palms

My work sent me to Twentynine Palms, CA for a week from 5-10 January. While I appreciate that my boss is starting to get me involved in bigger things at work, the timing couldn't have been worse. Joey left for 2 weeks on 10 Jan, so I flew home early on the 9th just in time to see him off.

Twentynine Palms is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. It took three flights and an hour plus drive to get there. And you'll see from the photos from the base, it's not much to look at. But, for those there, it does have advantages; 15 minutes from Joshua Tree, 2 hours or so from Vegas, 1 hour from Palm Springs, 1.5 from Big Bear, 2-ish to LA, 2-ish to San Diego. Not close but not so far you can't enjoy the weekends.
