Join me for an epic overland adventure to Coyote Creek in the Anza Borrego Desert State Park, in eastern San Diego county, Southern California.  This is one of the most pristine and beautiful desert wilderness areas I have ever seen, and is only accessible beyond the first few miles by high clearance 4 wheel drive vehicles.  The northernmost area of Borrego Springs is the entry point to Coyote Canyon for vehicle traffic, and the winter wildflowers are starting to bloom over the open fields.

First brittlebush in bloom sighting of the year! And it's been at it for a while, too. I just adore these sunny yellow flowers on their silvery green mounds of desert loving stubbornness, ha ha. I can't grow these things from seeds for squat but they sure do thrive cropping up in the strangest of places. Spring is on the way, y'all! #brittlebush #californiadesert #mojavedesert #californiawildflowers #adventuresatfortirwin https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIQw0sv0qo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🏜️ The weather has been absolutely perfect! I love this time of year in the #californiadesert! I've spent a lot of today just lounging in my new hammock giftset from @suncreatoutdoor. 🏜️ This hammock is so comfortable and can hold 2 people up to 450 lbs without a problem. It looks and feels to be very well made with a strong polyester cotton fabric. The curved bars are really pretty and made with marine varnish and I like how the curve design helps prevent it from flipping over! The ropes are hand woven into a cool looking triangle pattern. This hammock is also quick and easy to set up and fits into a backpack type size drawstring bag. I also plan on taking it camping and will just tie to a couple trees! I found this #lounging suncreat hammock on amazon https://amzn.to/3f4nlRS 🏜️ I also got their heavy duty hammock stand. It was super easy and quick to put together in about 15 minutes. It holds 475 lbs and is totally stable. I like the way it looks with the powder coated steel cube frame. I'm glad it's weather and rust resistant too!!. I found it at https://amzn.to/3eYyXFQ 🏜️ This set wouldn't be complete without the #suncreat wheel kit! It makes it so easy to just roll the framed hammock around to wherever I want So simple to just lift the end opposite the wheel and move it to new locations indoors or outdoors. Super smooth rolling so it doesn't scratch our flooring plus it's easy on landscaping. If you get the hammock and frame then this wheel is a must have! . . . . . . . #🏜️ #lounging#autumnvibes #organizedmom#californiablogger #productreviewer #organization #getorganized #organizedhome #fabover40 #JoshuaTrees#prodoctreviewer #momblogger #californiablogger #organizedmoms #organizedlife #organizedliving #fabover40hoopcommunity (at Southern California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkHryKxrUkR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

ABOUT ME: . "Rachel is an abstract painter living in the Bay Area, California. Her work focuses on intuitive expressions of nature utilized as a window into the landscapes of the mind. By drawing inspiration from desert landscapes, mountains, and plants, she sheds light on the idea of clarity holding hands with fragility. Just as nature is both chaotic and beautiful, so are our minds and experiences." .
