Day 19
We left San Diego and headed north to Dana Point.

 Cliff where hides were thrown down to the men who loaded them on boats, and where then rowed out to the ship.

 Hide throwing from this very spot over the cliff

 The statue of Richard Henry Dana JR, who wrote the book Two Years Before The Mast having spent 1835 on the west coast as a sailor and a hide drogher.  Gerry has had intense interest since he was 13 years old and is responsible for his interest in sail.
On our way to Vegas we drove through the Joshua Forrest.
