desert moments...


i can never figure out when we're in the desert or not... most of the desert doesn't look like typical desert to me, however i think where there's joshua trees it's considered desert - high desert at least... (sorry, once again the comments probably won't line up with the photos...)

ma, i've been trying to take some shots of flowers to show you, but i still manage to miss most the really striking ones, these are californian poppies. in some areas they're thick along the trail...










i really like these thistles. they come in pink, purple, red and white, but there's something really cool about the white ones...









beyond tehachapi, as we were leaving there were these cool lenticular clouds - at one point they looked mordorish....



this is jamz, annie and drop dead in the wind farm section... we walked though windfarm areas for 40 or 60 miles - can't quite remember - but it took quite some time...

  1. Love those lenticular clouds.
    We've had a few lenticulars over Wello the couple of days that look rather like space ships
