My favorite time to visit the Mojave Desert, Joshua Tree National Park and the desert town of Twentynine Palms is spring...though in a drought year the blooming isn't quite as noticeable, it's still a lovely trip...starting as usual with (passenger) freeway sketching...
...sketching in Joshua Tree National Park, where I never seem to get tired of drawing rocks...and drawing them in a variety of ways...
..wonderful to discover the ruins of an old mill...in the 1920's miners found gold here and called their claim "Wall Street", but by the beginning of the Great Depression, no more gold was found, and a mill was brought here to process ore from other mines.
Breakfast at the Country Kitchen in Joshua Tree...and painting on the outskirts of the desert town of Twentynine Palms...
Then it's time to return home...more freeway sketching!
