Sunset at Joshua Tree

It was a spontaneous trip to watch the sunset at Joshua Tree National Park,  We decided in less than 12 hours that we would drive out on a hot August afternoon and watch the sunset against the mysterious Joshua Trees. The magnificent mountains were the backdrop for the mysterious and magical Joshua Trees. We had just stood in silence watching this incredible sun glow during golden hour, at a loss for words as the sky turned to fire.

Always Magical: Joshua Tree at Sunrise and Sunset

Joshua Tree National Park also offers several options for camping, so you can enjoy this magical place from sunrise to sundown. Please check out the Joshua Tree National Park website for details, as well as safety cautions, particularly in the summer because of the heat. One of my favorite hikes for the spring is hiking to Barker Dam after the rains and before the summer drought. My other favorite spots can be found in my other blog, my first road trip to Joshua National Park.

New Orleans is more than what to see and do. It's more than beads hanging off of street signs. New Orleans is tasting powdered sugar on the fingers, cobblestones that rise and fall with every step; big porches with small details. It's big music, marching through the streets and gentle hospitality.

Heisler Park, Laguna Beach

Heisler Park in Laguna Beach, California is a perfect stop along the Pacific Coast Highway. It's a perfect mix of tropical and wild beach. If you want to truly appreciate how beautiful a beach can be, visit it early in the spring, after a rare Southern California dark and cloudy sky. Any beach can look appealing in bright sunshine and blue skies. For the wanderer that seeks raw and wild beauty where ocean touches the land, this is where you go.

Blooming Flower Fields of Carlsbad

I dreamt I walked through the blooming Flower Fields of Carlsbad. A sea of pink, white, red and orange flowers in rows of waves as far as I could see. I stepped into a painting with the breezes blowing off the ocean and could see the ocean from atop the hill. I realized I wasn't dreaming. This was a dream come true.
