Joshua Tree

The end of the winter quarter brought a (short. very, very short.) "Spring Break"...

Camping at Joshua Tree!




The wildflowers in the southernmost part of the Park were in bloom...


The Joshua trees were also in bloom. The blossoms look like big popcorn balls...

Joshua trees are funny things... Often, they are really impressive and striking to look at... But, other times, they look a little silly.


A hike (approx. 7 miles) through the "Wonderland of Rocks" to a little oasis called "Willow Hole":



Near our camp site:

Arch Rock
