As I drove into Palm Springs Los Angeles and exited the 10 onto Hwy 111, glanced to the right at the mountains and spotted a large sand dune, wondering, "How do I get there?" I quickly figured out where to park to avoid a towing and embarked on a twenty-minute hike to reach the dunes, crawling under an overpass and a barbed wire fence along the way. As you can see, the effort was definitely worth it.

     To me, "wind" symbolizes energy, especially as I pass the windmills welcoming visitors to the Coachella Valley.
