My excuse for going out there this weekend was the Balloon Fiesta...unfortunately the winds were not cooperative. Both the Saturday and Sunday balloon functions were canceled because of the high winds. (I did see a couple of balloons before they deflated them!! AND we still saw some pretty awesome fireworks.) Luckily the balloons were just my excuse to go. My REASON for going was still there!!
Since the balloons were a no go, we used our time doing a lot of hiking. Hard core (for me) hiking. I even had to get my very first pair of hiking shoes. Oh yeah. I'm a pro now. When we hiked part way up the Cabazon, peak, we did pretty well about 2/3rds of the way up, and then SLID the rest of the way down on our butts. It was pretty comical.

Me...with no way up, no way down...
While we didn't make it to the top of Cabazon Peak, we did make it to the top of Battleship rock...

and went to Soda Dam and saw some hot springs
and met some locals...
