The Morongo Basin Historical Society is offering a special field trip for members to the Sky’s the Limit Observatory in Twentynine Palms, Saturday, April 5. The evening begins at 6 p.m. with a nature walk. The “Under the Desert Sky” star party begins after dark when telescopes will be pointed at the waxing crescent moon, Jupiter, and other celestial objects. The cost is $10 and includes dessert. Spaces are limited; call Claudia at 760-366-7896 to reserve your spot.
The Morongo Basin Historical Society’s Museum Marketplace this Saturday will feature more goodies for your garden, from vermi-compost to vegetable seedlings, as well as collectibles and treasures at the vendors’ tables. The cement portico has been poured, so all vendors will now be on an “even keel.” If you have items to donate for the Museum Marketplace, call Claudia at 760-366-7896.
