Let me just say wow. This place is so beautiful and fun. We started out our day in Palm Springs where we ventured from modern home to modern home. We then grabbed a load of water and headed to Joshua Tree National park. I must note it’s summer and we’re in the desert. It was hot, but it’s a dry heat. (just drink loads of water) My eyes were so delighted, I don’t think we saw a single vista which wasn’t beautiful as far as the eye can see. We climbed rocks and hiked through the forest of Joshua Trees. Great times.

As we were leaving, we met a nice family from Melbourne Australia and we traded family photos. The Dad asked me where is the Joshua Tree. He was looking at a map. I said here’s one. He said no THE Joshua Tree. I said no this is a Joshua Tree, he said you mean that forest of trees we just drove through were all Joshua Trees? ME: Yes, that’s why they named the park Joshua Tree.
