| Age's Back still isn't wonderful, so we had to make trip modifications - like how to eat. |

| Holly and Adrian met us at the Getty Museam |
| ||||||
| Somehow we forgot to take pictures of our stay with Dollie and Claude, but were inspired to bring out the camera once we got to the beach. |
| |||||||||
| Jon and Ceil watched the sunset with us. |

| We hit the right time of year - all the desert flowers were in bloom. David went a little crazy trying to photograph them all. Some of them are here. |
| ||
| Age being classy - picking the nose of skull rock. |
|
|
|
| ||
| Age is ready to start the day! |

| Our hike with elevation gain (age's back allowed a small hill...) |

| Fields of Joshua Trees |

| The start of our favorite hike. We saw two ravens attacking a rattler, and the rattler attacked back! The striking distance was incredible! |
| ||
| We havn't seen the rattler yet, so Age is still willing to sit on a rock. |
| ||
| No way now is she going off the beaten track! |
|
|
| ||
| Sunset at our campsite |
| ||
| This is one of age's favorite pictures |
| ||||||
| Scrambling! (No climbing allowed yet, but we were able to scramble!) |

| The Cholla Cactus Garden! Almost as weird as Joshua Trees! |
| ||
| The Cholla Cactus spines have microscopic barbs that allow them to sink and stay in your skin... |

|
| ||
| Prasad and Jyothi came all the way from SF to have breakfast with us! |
| ||||||
| Age like the mist-machine |
| ||
| But didn't really get the trash-can art |
| ||
| Enjoying the warm sun and incredible music |
