And that’s exactly what the owners of Seven Oaks Lavender Farm are inviting you to do with their Tentrr setup....

The 49 Palms Trail was closed on June 1 while the park’s wildlife biologists monitor the situation, according to the National Park Service. “The park is under extreme drought conditions and herds in the area are increasingly reliant on the oasis spring to survive the hot summer months,” the NPS wrote in its advisory....
