    Joshua tree National park

    My wife and I went out to JTNP and spent a couple of days enjoying the trails. (It always is sad I can't bring grizz but I understand). We did my favorite trail 49 palms oasis. The chuchwallas were out. Here are just a few of them.

    The next day did the concrete mine although not all the way as the weather started getting bad. I found a tortoise who was out. He was pretty dormant as the temperature had dropped.

    Great pics, but those Joshua trees are creepy looking. I always think about the movie tarantula every time I see one.
