Overnight Getaway: Joshua Tree National Park
Saturday afternoon, while recovering from the Silver Lake photo walk, I sat like a zombie in front of my computer. While discussing the evening’s options, the following IM message popped up on the screen:
“Lets go to Vegas!”
Normally, I would jump at the chance to wander around a Vegas casino. I enjoy staring at the eyes of people bitten by the gambling bug, watching people play craps and guessing which patrons are actually women of evening trying to find a client. It’s voyeurism at it’s finest (along with some great shows). However, as I had the “Potluck and a Beach Sunset Over Malibu at El Matador State Beach” event the next day at 6pm and it was hot as hell in Vegas, clearly this would not be the best option.
So, when he suggested going to Joshua Tree and wrote the magical words “It’s only two hours away”, my camera and I were ready for the trip.
