Late as usual with my post..Love 29 Palms, or the area at least. Just took the 2 Claremont-based granddaughters (6 & 9) camping 3 days before T'giving, to Desert Hot Springs (do we haaaaave to leave???) and Joshua Tree (my 2nd time), a blast. But 29 Palms (the place) likes to get real confusing because its main attraction for my money is an oasis you can hike to called 49 Palms!! Go figger! Happy Yuletide all.
