  On the way home from our California road trip, Jennifer and I decided to spend a couple of days in Death Valley. We left the high country of Yosemite, the eastern entrance had just re-opened after winter, and traveled to the lowest & hottest place in N. America. Our first morning we woke early and headed for the sand dunes while the weather was still cool. Romping through the dunes, taking pictures, gave us both a healthy perspective on the harsh & severe environment. A little while after the sun rose, the temperature was rising above 100, time to seek shelter.
