A short stop on our way home. This Park is huge, slightly bigger than the state of Rhode Island. It encompasses two distinct ecological zones and these can actually be recognized as you drive through the park. This was my second trip through the park and I am still amazed at how few Joshua Trees are in the park! The AZ Joshua Tree Park has more trees and they appear healthier than their CA counterparts. The rock formations are interesting and the desert views are outstanding. The Cholla Garden is a must see.
As we neared Twenty Nine Palms I admitted to Tom that I had not been so tired in years. Years!!! The following morning I asked him if, just perchance, we were too old to be keeping up the schedule we had chosen recently. "Maybe." was his response. Nope! Not! Negative! That was my response! I am sure once we get rested up we will be just fine. Until then, two tired minds are better than one tired mind so we will stick closely together. We are a team!! Thanks for joining and sharing our teamwork.
