Joshua Tree

We had planned to stay at Joshua Tree for two nights and spend an entire day exploring.  It didn't work out that way.  When we arrived it was a beautiful day.  Clear skies, no wind, temperatures in the high 60s.


On the way up to Cottonwood we found a desert tortoise on the side of the road.  He appeared to be fine, just taking a rest.

A beautiful sunset from our campsite.

The colors changed as the sun went lower.

The next morning after breakfast the wind picked up and we were getting 40 mph gusts hitting the side of the trailer.  It was unpleasant so we packed up and headed to Palm Springs.
