Joshua Trees at dawn
As you can imagine, with that much driving, there was much knitting. I finished a secret and substantial project on the drive to L.A., and after that I worked on an experimental shawl in fawn alpaca.
Knitting at the Grand Canyon
During the trip, I felt like I was bursting with scenes and stories to share, but now that I'm back, those thoughts have quieted down. What I'm really left with is a strong impression of the desert color palette - blue sky, pink rocks, green vegetation - and a sense of peacefulness. I'd like to be better at "unplugging" like that even when I'm home.

Yeah, I'm thinking you found yourselves a great spot or two! Love the picture of you knitting over the Grand Canyon...I must admit whenever I see images like this, my mind goes to Ed Abbey and then I smile! ;)
Sounds like a great trip! I'm from SoCal and my husband and I met in Josha Tree...rock climbing. We're on a trip now to some great desert places. Zion is one of my favorite places on earth and we usually go there at least once a year. There are so many great desert places to see! Can't wait to see your knitting projects. :-)
take me with you.
Awesome pictures. Knitting at the Grand Canyon is wow. ;)
