Photos from Route 66 and Joshua Tree

I have always wanted to visit Joshua Tree and Route 66 and finally got the opportunity on a trip last March. The park has grown in popularity over the years, but still provides some opportunities for excellent scenery and starry skies.

I saw less of Route 66 than I hoped, as the road was closed at Roy, and seems to have been for some time, information that somehow didn’t make it to Google Maps. Still, I enjoyed the small towns on the road I was able to see and the journey certainly inspired listening to some classic Nat King Cole.
