Weekend in the Desert - January 29th, 2011

Hogs, camels, and jeeps.....ohh my!
Artful rust....
Welcome to the Borrego Springs zoo!

This is a must see.  We were delighted to find these hidden treasures.  Although, they were not exactly hidden, you just need to keep your eyes open and you are sure to see them.

All of this sight seeing made us thirsty and a bit hungry.  We came up on a busy Mexican restaurant called El Borrego.  The outdoor patio was filled with more of these free standing art statues.  We knew we had to check this out.  Ordered a margarita for each of us and some taquitos to share.  I have to say, they serve a pretty darn good margarita and the taquitos were great too. 

Back to Vallecito Stage Coach (where we were calling home for the weekend). 

The Desert is so beautiful this time of year.  Weather was perfect, mid 70's.  Check out some of the sights we enjoyed during our weekend in the Desert.
