Travelling – Joshua Tree

So after a long weekend, I decided to visit Joshua Tree National Park. Yes, I live in So Cal! 😀

Joshua Tree National Park is an interesting and amazing place. Especially when the temperature only gets to 78 so you can relax and enjoy the day, not die from heat stroke. Desert time is almost over as summer is coming fast, but there may be one or two weekends left to enjoy the dirty outdoors.

Going here reminds me of Gollum’s Riddle from The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.
