Stopped at the Oasis of Mara in Twentynine Palms and walked around the palms. Not much water left in this oasis, though apparently it was quite the watering hole a hundred or more years ago.
On the way to
Anza Borrego, stopped at the cholla cactus garden and strolled around.
Our
motel in Borrego Springs was just across the street from a little mall with several restaurants and a coffee shop, so we didn't even have to drive to dinner or breakfast. It's a nice place to stay if you go to a future AB meet and don't want to camp. A portable radiant heater was necessary, however, to heat the room in mid-January. :-)
