On our third day we went touring around to see some of the cool natural environments of Southern Cali. We headed through some Avocado hilly mountains east toward Mount San Jacinto State Park. The base in Palm Springs is a desert but when we arrived at the top we were greeted by a blizzard! Next we went to Joshua Tree National Park and checked out some of the awesome rock formations and interesting flora.
Carolyn, after some airport adventures arrived in California on the 24th. I came the following day at night and gave Carolyn's Mom her Christmas present.
