A few days ago, we went on a little walk at the edge of our neighborhood. You drive to the end of the paved road, drive past the last house, out onto some government land and over look a valley from the joshua tree littered foothills. It's spectacular at sunset. Here are a few photos.

| There are trails forged all over these desert foothills. |

Last spring this Yucca plant sent up the giant shoot you see covered in white flowers.
It is now dying and it's offspring surround it, preparing for the spring when they too will sprout a veritable tree of white flowers. |
