Action Plan: Given the heat, and the somewhat shorter driving time available during afternoon drives, I have thought of making the best of that time by launching a "Sunset on Top of a Dune" Series. Relatively short drives (although one never knows with me), at relatively fast pace, aimed at reaching the top of the major dunes that dominate our deserts. After the first 2 drives this past week, installments 3 and 4 are ready to go. This one will take the convoy from Iftar Bowl to Badayer and across to Big Red, before reaching Pink Rock, and exiting near December 2nd Cafe. This same weekend, on Friday afternoon, we'll have a Sunset drive to Nagrah.

What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), smiles, face mask, rubber gloves, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn.

Approximate finish time: 7:30 PM

P.S. Only join if you have a compressor to inflate your tires after the drive.
