Is her location undesirable? I’m not familiar with it (29 something?).
Twenty-Nine Palms CA is in the middle of the Mojave Desert and is blisteringly hot in the summer. Nothing but sand and yucca and Joshua trees. And the accompanying desert wild life...rattlers, sidewinders, Gila monsters, tarantulas, cactus...
I like the area, but then, I’m always going to be a child of the desert. ;o]
What ‘Face said. It’s known as “29 Stumps.” Elen is admiring the novel ecosystem and dramatic views, but it will be more difficult to enjoy it in July!
The Marines train for air ops there, so there are assignments for Tactical Air Traffic Control, but we hope she’ll go someplace else for her first real post.
