Joshua Tree National Park

Left to right: Jo, Lou, me

We'd sort of forgotten it was Spring Break until we arrived at the Joshua Tree south visitor center. Oh, yeah. The ranger said the park was full, but that it was about checkout time, so some campsites might become available. We crossed our fingers and headed to Belle campground.

We lucked out big time. There were three vacant campsites next to each other, by one of the rock formations. Sweet.

Other than the wind and total lack of cell service, everything is very nice. And clean.

With our Old Fart Passes, entry to the park is free and camping is only $5/night.
