22 April 2025, Pensacola Beach RV Resort Relaxing morning. I spent some time trying to get caught up with blogging due to our trip delay in Palm Springs. It has been difficult.   The four of us spent the afternoon at the beach reading, doing word find puzzles, drinking margaritas and enjoying the ocean view. You cannot beat spending a day on the beach.  Ken enjoying the beach life Barry and I enjoying the ocean view and shade Our RV spot for the next few days Copyright © 2025 by Jacqueline Threet Henderson, Jacqueline's Jaunts.

It is a steep downward hike with three levels .9 miles to Ooh Aah Point, .6 miles to Cedar Ridge, and 1.5 miles to Skeleton Point...then another four miles to the Colorado River. We only went to Ooh Aah Point., well...almost. The rest of the group went to Cedar Ridge.

Unfortunately, my damn hips were giving me problems again. We almost made it to Ooh Aah, but it was starting to get warm, and I do not hike well when it is warm. I also had to use my inhaler, and it helped. The walk back up was uphill with switchback...
