Joshua tree has long stood as an enchanted place full of whimsy and magic: both attracting chaos and dispersing it. Thrillseekers, peacemakers, artists, and souls seeking answers, are attracted to Joshua Tree’s wonder and intangible spirit. But did you know that Joshua Tree is also known for being haunted? Some of the spirits of those lost souls still linger. Today Nat enchants Aly with the true story of Gram Parson’s final wishes and the *great* friends who made it all happen. Put on your cowboy hats and buckle tf up because we aren’t here for a long time...we are here for a good time. YEEHAW!
