This new moon in particular has us thinking about a fresh start and new intentions for taking care of our planet. With recent fires and clear warnings from the earth that climate change is happening, the reality of losing the ability to even see the stars is jolting. We’ve been finding gratitude in the small […]
It was about 7:30 one night in May of 2015. Eight hours earlier we had loaded up our car in San Francisco with tools, clothes, and our cats. We had just bought The Joshua Tree House a week earlier and were making our first trip to stay for a few weeks. We got off I-10 […]
We’re so very excited to share that we now have Lightroom presets available for both desktop and mobile. 🎉 Created in collaboration with Modern Market, our JTH Preset Collection is rooted in a love for desert landscapes and natural interiors. It’s the perfect collection of ten presets for anyone who is looking to capture and […]
Events of the past few months have been a catalyst for deep reflection. The global pandemic and the further uncovering of systemic racism still present in our country today weighs heavily on our minds. As such, we find ourselves actively pursuing how we can be more than a place for all to enjoy. We have […]
Strange times indeed. We’re all dealing with the difficulty of navigating these uncharted waters, but we’re comforted by the fact that we’re all in this together. Knowing that music can be a potent salve in times of crisis, we wanted to put together a new Spotify playlist to help out in a small way. The […]
Valley View Overlook Trail in Saguaro National Park is an easy out and back trail that we especially love for spotting all kinds of native desert plants. The trailhead is only a few minute drive from JTH Tucson, and the trail itself takes only about 30 minutes making it a perfect quick adventure into […]
When we found our dream abandoned inn bordering Saguaro National Park, it already felt like tile heaven. In some areas old carpeting had been removed, but the original Saltillo tile remained along with various Talavera tiles creating patterned borders on the many fireplaces. As we brought JTH Tucson back to life, we loved the idea […]
Split Rock Loop Trail in Joshua Tree National Park is a moderate loop trail that we’ve been really enjoying lately. We find that it’s not as trafficked as other trails in the park (like Hidden Valley or Barker Dam), but offers similar beauty (think rock formations, Joshua Trees, and incredible views). There’s so much beauty […]
Winter has arrived in the high desert, and with it, cold nights and the thought of last year’s fleeting snowstorm. Our December New Moon Spotify playlist focuses on the ethereal, hypnotic harmonies of San Francisco duo Magic Magic Roses. Kate Sweeney and Sarah Simon have been making music together since 2008, releasing a string of […]
This year we’re focused on consuming and wasting less, while supporting our community and environmental causes. This year’s gift guide includes so many of our favorite artists and makers (many of which we worked with to create JTH Tucson), and sustainable items we’ve been loving and will continue using in 2020 to reduce waste. Cheers […]
