Demon Eye, why didn't you come earlier?

A separate contingent was at the same sign earlier in the day. We arrived at about 4:30 local time, and actually encountered the farmer driving away from the location. We asked him innocently if we were on his property and he told us that we were. He asked if we were sightseeing and we decided that was a good alibi and agreed. He said that we could continue down to the "tower with the tank on the top" to turn around, where the sign was that Demon Eye took a picture of (the tower with tank is off to the right of the sign in the picture). We took more pictures which will be uploaded later. Disappointed that we could not ethically reach the true destination, we instead braved some unpaved levee roads and visited the television tower north of the meet-up point which happens to be the tallest structure in California and one of the tallest structures ever to exist. More pictures of that coming later, too.
