Enjoying the back roads
Joshua Tree National Park
Palm garden
Giant rocks
Gorgeous weather
Zooming by Joshua trees
Scenic overlook
Desert and mountains

Alien landscape
With some snow from a storm last week
Amazing
We love the desert in the winter
Heading back down to the trail
Lost Horse Mine and the mountains
Joshua trees
Crossing through the Mojave Desert
Salt lake
Not a soul in sight
Our shadow
Evening sun
The sun setting
The moon rising
Another day ends
