Dan and Danica should be arriving at around eleven tonight. In the meantime, Reed and I went on an epic, 19.5 mi round-trip bike ride to and through the Valle de la Luna (Valley of the Moon). The area is supposed to have lunar character. To me, it looked like a long valley with a lot of salt. Nonetheless, it was a very striking, interesting place. 
This is a sand dune that we encountered at the end of our ride. What was particularly striking about the place was, despite its status as a tourist destination, the total lack of people. Here's Reed studying the map on a completely deserted stretch of road. We were in the actual park for about 90 minutes, and only saw two cars.
