Desert blooming





The flowers are beginning in Joshua National Park. They had a rainfall in September that washed out roads and trails. Three inches in three hours! Large water-swept areas are still evident but the good news is that with a bit of rain this spring, flowers may arrive. We'll keep checking.
Pictures include lichen on shady side of boulder and the parasite, mistletoe, with red fruit.
