We've been going out every day to interesting places. This includes three visits to The Living Desert, and three trips to the Rancho Mirage Library. I could spend hours in the reading room at this amazing place but we also have signed up for various events they are sponsoring. We attended an afternoon presentation: Conservation of the Coachella Valley ecosystem and an evening video and presentation with 89 year-old Anne Dagg (Look up The woman who loves giraffes). The things we didn't know.....
I continue being fascinated by all things succulent! The varieties are mind-boggling. The Living Desert is focused on conservation of animals as well as their habitats. They have a nursery with native succulents and provide them to places trying to make the change from water-hogging geraniums and grass.
