We spent the night in the luxury tipi’s at Cynthia's China Ranch Tipi’s, right in the middle of the date palms. Really quiet and peaceful. In the middle of the night we were woken up by the coyotes howling.

We brought our own dinner, calzones and salad.  Judy, John and Laurie dining. Sunset on the badlands to the south.

Our hostess, Cynthia. We have been coming here every year for the last 20. The garden at Furnace Creek Inn in Death Valley. The place is an oasis in the desert.
