That was an epic day of riding!
And 'yes' you did go into Truckhaven (Phone booth, tetherball and the skills course are all in Truckhaven.)
The Blu Inn is right off the main highway there going east, probably five miles or so from where you are camped.
Glad you are getting all that riding in. I'd bet you will be sore tomorrow.
Weather should be perfect too!

Fish Creek on Split Mountain Rd. is nice for the sights
Just got back from todays ride. Only managed 79.6 miles, bringing the grand total for our two days here to 171.1 miles.
Once again we ate breakfast in, and started out by trying to ride to the fire hydrant. We thought we would take the scenic route and headed out along Fault Wash road. Took a right onto Cut Across Trail and decided to follow the East Bank wash to the Pumpkin Patch. From there, we "crossed over" and rode through the Tierra Del Sol canyon and back along Tectonic Gorge to the fire hydrant.
Moving on, we grabbed some lunch in Salton City and then headed south along Pole Line Road and followed the Roadrunner Trail home, stopping by Blu Inn (closed on tuesdays) and Iron Door before calling it a day. We didn't end up hitting quite as many "checkpoints" today, but mobbing through the desert was more than enough.
Id like to thank all of you guys for the helpful tips and information, all of the small things made the trip that much better. Ocotillo Wells sure is an awesome place, and you guys are lucky to have it in your back yard.
Now its time to cook up some steak and enjoy some much needed rest before our 500+ mile trek home tomorrow.
