After a very nice lunch, we checked into the park headquarters and got the info on where the desert flowers were blooming. We headed to the suggested locations. The flowers were amazing! We had no trouble finding them and spent a fair amount of time enjoying them and taking photos. The photos of sculptures and flowers can be seen below.
On our way back to our accommodations we were distracted along the way when we saw large metal sculptures of mostly prehistoric animals, dinosaurs and even a serpent of some sort. These sculptures sit on public land. They were commissioned by a local resident and developer. A Perris, California artist named Ricardo Breceda created the 130 sculptures distributed around the Borrego Springs area. Our sculpture viewing slopped over into the trip to Sandstone Canyon shown in the next post.
