Ginger put her bikini one with shorts and top over it. I just wore a pair of my cutoff jeans and a tank top. We loaded up a couple of towels and two...folding chairs. It was getting dark when we left town and had to rely on following Bill’s van to find our way. We drove about half an hour through the desert and finally we followed him onto a raised berm and stopped. We couldn’t see a thing in the headlights and when we turned them off, it was pitch black outside. We had to take Bill’s word.
