Happy Birthday to Al, the nicest husband in the world. Celebrating today @bungalowintheboulders in Joshua Tree. Can’t recommend this place enough—I don’t use the word magical very often, but it is apropos. Thanks to all the #signgeeks who posted about this place. And thanks to Carey for saving all these vintage signs. (at Joshua Tree, California)
