Description
The Great Colorado Desert
My boquet is made up of desert
flowers of which there'll be a
shortage this season because of
little rainfall. The branching
Yucca (Spanish Bayonet) was in full
bloom in places. A tall fine foliage
sage was common in the Palm Springs
Section also a tall growing greasewood
with very pretty yellow blooms. We
visited this interesting territory Feb
21 and 22-motoring as far as Coachella,
(Coachella Valley) then by a road that skirts
the hills and sand dunes on north side
valley coming back to Palm Springs by
a road running along the south side, right
beside the brownish mts.
One night in Palm S--- was a pleasant
experience.
