What the California desert was like back in the day!

The Devil's Cactus Garden, CA 1930s -1940s RPPC

When I was a kid living in L.A., I'd take a day trip to the desert once in a while. I hit Twentynine Palms, Indio, Thousand Palms to take a look-see. I never appreciated the CA desert until I moved away. From what I've read, the Devil's Cactus Garden is pretty barren now. People have dug up a lot of the cactus to put in their gardens or landscapers will sell cactus to customers. I read in AZ, the authorities have put microchips in the cactus or use cameras to catch the cactus thieves.
