February 19 - 20,2026 Death Valley, California

 High of 61, mostly cloudy and rain all around us, but  not on us. 



Rain in the Funeral mountains to the east. Sun coming through some rain to the west. 



We walked over to Furnace Creek Ranch. Note the elevation sign to the right of the fountain, 190 feet below sea level. The thermometer at the visitors center.



Sunset tonight. 


We went to a  so so ranger talk on wildflowers this evening. 



Wildflowers at the visitors center. I finished another masterpiece. This is made from dyed pine needles, polyester and hemp cord, gemstone and glass beads, blue magnetite beads. The center is a slate sandblasted and pained with a raven.  It got away from me and got huge. 12 x 12 x  3 inches. 



The masterpiece is embellished with a silver thunderbird and a blue bear. Wildflowers by the bus. 



Sunset. Roelle was singing on the Borax  deck outside the Last Kind Word Saloon at Furnace Creek Ranch. She was so loud you could hear her all the way into the campground. Fortunatly she had a lovely voice.
