The desert gardens surrounding our house in Joshua Tree were quirky, fun, interesting to explore. So different from the Kansas garden.
Lots of good chairs/swings/benches/hammocks for resting too.
Behind this big cactus pot you can see a trail in the distance, winding around behind a small mountain. Maybe a hill. It felt like a small mountain when I was trying to figure out how to get up it.
I'll just say it was pretty glorious being able to walk out the patio and scramble up a mountain on a hike. Even if I did sit down on my bum unintentionally one time. Or maybe twice.
Just wonderful!
Your trips, your photos & your words.
Thanks you Carol!

Beautiful photos. Sounds/looks like another delightful art retreat.

The garden is interesting, especially with its offbeat art! The landscape reminds me of the really dry basins in Wyoming. That clear sky, too. Looks like you gals had another great art trip - I'm always a teeny bit envious of those! ;)

We were in CA (from KS) last week and didn't end up going to Joshua Tree due to the rainy forecast (and maybe the forecast was wrong?). Instead we did day trips from Oceanside to the San Diego area. That was Plan B, as Plan A would have been in Sequoia which where roads were closed due to snow and rock slides! Must be adaptable when traveling in January! :)
