as much fun as we had playing at the beach and/or living it up at disneyland, johsua tree national park snuck up on us as the most winningest destination from our trip to california.
i've been wanting to visit for several years, but every time we head to the golden state, we stay on the coast, and the drive inland to the park just seems a bit too long to make.
takeaway tip for my fellow coastal visitors: it is not too long to make.
get thee to the joshua tree.
checking out the ocotillo:
lunching our way through national parks the way our ancestors did:
cholla cactus:
we may have wandered a bit off the beaten path (and i'm using the word "path" here quite loosely), and bryan got bit by a cholla (dallin did, too, but not nearly as badly).
don't let his smile fool you, that sucker hurts. i performed an emergency extraction. he survived.
our kids could have climbed these rocks for the rest of their lives:
skull rock:
