Mecca and the fruit orchards around

Gas prices in CA the first of March 2012. We will be going to San Diego March 12th so I will take another picture. Phil ran into a guy on a motor cycle that came upon a station selling fuel for $4.99. When he told the attendant that that was a little high, the attendant said that there was a station 50 miles in either direction start walking.
Mecca, CA Phil said he didn't want to offend any one but he felt like an infidel here. This wasn't much of a community but it is the largest producer of dates.
Speaking of dates. This is a date orchard.
This is an orange orchard.
This is a grape orchard.
This is a lemon orchard.
This is a ?plant farm. The amazing thing was these orchards were all on the same highway in a short span.
This is a Tee Pee that some of the Indians in this area would have built to live in.

This is the end of our travel on 2-29-12 on our way to San Diego, which we never made it to San Diego on this day, but that was OK. Saw a lot of wonderful sites, unusual sites, sad sites, and stinky sites.
