Day 253


Day 253- The Living Desert

I spent the afternoon at one of my favorite places in the Coachella Valley, The Living Desert.  The Living Desert is a zoo and botanical gardens located in Palm Desert, CA.  They are dedicated to preserving desert plants and wildlife and educating visitors about desert ecosystems.  My family has been members of the Living Desert for over 25 years.  I grew up visiting and have loved watching it grow.
