Yup, I camped with some friends at Joshua Tree a week before the pandemic and lockdown hit and we had a blast exploring the funkiness that is Twenty-nine palms.
Wow, Anza-Borrego looks really cool. I had to map it out. Have you been up to Twentynine Palms? It is one of those places lots of people hate because it is basically dead-zone desert nothing, but there are SO MANY cool mid-century modern house rentals there. Desert dream. Otherworldly.
Yes, I did know about ocotillos. When we volunteered at Kartchner Caverns State Park (Benson, AZ), we learned that fun fact. Thanks for your travel journal entry!
Love your short stories!! They remind me of details I'd not thought of in a long time. Things like the cigarette ashtrays near fitness centers, or wellness boutiques or nutritional juice cleanse dispensers.

Borrego Springs sounds like a fake resort town in a sitcom. Another great story!
Love the detail about the ashtrays and the incongruity with fitness! It's perfect!
