Hi Merna, I have been enjoying your Death Valley images, especially this one. I know this place so well but never considered using the old tree to frame the dunes and mountains- great. All being well we will be back there in March. #10937028

Have you ever had a meal at the resort? We loved every moment of our trip and the breakfast and evening meals were just perfect. We live in central California and it was my first time there, but not the last. Thank you for the very nice comment. #10937041

We are campers, but yes we have had lunch at Furnace Creek Inn. The gardens are so beautiful. #10937294
