Desert Gardens! 8/27/2004

The Temp was near 100 and it was still very enjoyable. Since we had not yet experienced the desert terrain, it was great to see and learn about the plantlife indigenous of this area. The trails are set up so that you may follow your own personal interests or experience it all. We ate lunch at the cafe and it was more than sufficient with good choices. The gift shop was full of great stuff as well as educational items, all were reasonably priced not gauging as most attractions! Pros: Educational, Beautiful, Enjoyable more
