July 9th - Joshua Tree National Park. We entered Joshua Tree at the southern Cottonwood entrance and drove all the way through the park, stopping at many of the incredible vistas. To say that you are in the middle of the desert-no-where is an understatement - it is extremely hot, extremely dry, extremely barren...yet incredibly gorgeous. It is almost mind blowing that anything survives out in this harsh harsh environment. As you drive through the first 45 minutes through the southern end of the park you question how this ended up as a national park - then you reach the spectacular Joshua Tree forests and incredible boulders - and you no longer question why.
