Today we left San Diego again. This time we headed out toward Arizona with the idea of visiting the Grand Canyon in mind. We headed straight out east along Interstate 8. Just past Yuma we found a nice BLM campsite at Lake Mittry. The lake is a meandering swampy sort of lake. The camp sites are nice and feel very private as they are spread out in different alcoves along the lake and hidden by the reeds. There are 4×4 trails in the hills behind the lake. It was kinda warm and there were a few bugs, but it was awful pretty. The lake was serene and the sun hit it just right. It was quite and serene and we passed out early after a long day’s drive.
