Location: Somewhere in the California Desert
With the coordinates dispatched to those who were in the know, the stage was set for the 9th Annual Desert Rendezvous presented by American Adventurist.

Local weather reports had been giving out mixed readings regarding rain, and our team needed to meet early at the Rendezvous site in the desert and get set up for the large gathering to come during the weekend.

Awesome article! Great job by EVERYONE involved. Its awe inspiring to see the tree that was planted 9 years ago, once again flower and bear its fruit after another season of careful and meticulous planning. The article certainly satiated my senses long removed from the deserts that once made me whole. I could almost smell the desert air... carrying the aromas of the various culinary creations; hear the sounds of happy friends and families, some reuniting for the annual gathering, others meeting in-person for the first time, and the sight of the wide open vistas that inspire the sleeping pioneer in all of us to get out and explore, were as beautiful as ever! Thanks again to everyone involved... members, sponsors, staff and those who ensure we enjoy the freedom and ability to get out and enjoy this beautiful land of OURS!

Stuck is one way to put it. But you were where you were supposed to be.
