You don't have a world-class arabian horse show where you are. Also, it costs more than a hundred and seventy dollars to fly (round trip) there, I betcha. It's only with dirt-cheap flights that I am willing to spend only two nights (Tuesday and Wednesday) at the flown-to location.
I'm seriously considering five days (two for travel, two for being-there) to visit the Joshua Tree National Park near Palm Springs, CA in May. I figure I can swing the entire trip (including airfare, hotel, park fees, and car rental) for about six hundred dollars. Anyone want to come with and split the car rental fee and hotel room? (That'd halve my price for the rental car and the hotel room, see. Dates under consideration are May 5 - May 8, flying out of BWI. May 5 is a Saturday, May 8 is a Tuesday.)
NOTE: Primary (only) trip activity will be trekking through Joshua Tree National Park and taking pictures of the shrubbery in assorted lighting levels and ninety-degree heat. You'd need a good hat, sunscreen, layers of clothing, good hiking boots, acceptable personal fitness, and the ability to walk at a reasonable speed while carrying at least a gallon of water in your pack... in ninety-degree heat, all day long. Any takers?
