Out For A Sunday Drive

FabGrandpa and I were feeling cabin feverish today, so we decided to drive over to 29 Palms, California. It is about 160 miles from us. We crossed over the Colorado River in Parker, Arizona. We wound up in Joshua Tree National Park, which was a fabulous treat!

Hwy 62 is mostly straight, after this big curve. We drove all the way over to the other side of those mountains.

Was this a lake or a mirage? We couldn’t tell, but there was a lake shown on the map.

We drove through Joshua Tree National Park. We had not been here before today, and were amazed at the huge rock formations.


The Joshua Tree is really a yucca plant. They get amazingly tall for yuccas. They are taller than Jim.


If you want to see the rest of the pictures, go on over to Facebook and look me up. You can find me by using my email address: fabgrandma at gmail dot com. Or, you can send me an email and I will add you as a friend.

    That looks like a dry lake bed. What lake was it supposed to be? Love those Joshua trees.

    Very cool! When I mentioned JOTR to Berta she asked when we would go as she hadn’t been in years. Been a few for me too. I love those boulders. Will check out the facebook pics.
    Going to Dewy tomorrow in my truck to pick up a free couch.

    Joshua trees are gorgeous. So many people dislike them out here. Glad to see someone else shares my appreciation for them.
