i got to the meeting spot at around 9:50-10:00, but i didn't see anyone . maybe i was at the wrong spot? the meeting time was 9:30, right? i was coming from 10East and exited the rest stop before Joshua Tree. damn this is the second time i've come so close, yet missed it.

for xcursions, it seems i'm only 1-for-3 . i'll try to make the next one, at least that'll give me a 50% ratio.
