The Color Palette of the Desert

Calico Basin, Las Vegas.

Those of you who have lived in Las Vegas for years will probably roll your eyes at me, but I can’t help it. I am so fascinated by the landscape here: the desert, the mountains, and the colorful rocks that make the perfect subjects for my amateur photography.

So, in honor of my obsession with our western scenery, I decided the blog needed a make-over. I wanted a theme that captures that desert vibe. Hence, the new look of Wandering Off! I hope you like it. This is a WordPress theme called Liquorice by Nudge Design.

I also wanted to share this photo from the weekend. We took a walk at Calico Basin, along the little boardwalk loop that you can find near the picnic pavilions. It’s a short stroll, but a pleasant one, and it’s a very manageable length for young kids.

Thank you for reading Wandering Off!

  1. I really like the new look Sarah =) It’s simple, clean and warm. I like how it almost takes up most of the width of the screen too. I have to add Calico Basin to my list of places to visit outside of the LV strip.

    • Thanks, Mary!

      You should try Calico Basin. It’s very close to Red Rock Canyon and Spring Mountain Ranch State Park, so you could easily combine it with other adventures.

  2. I didn’t see the old look, but I really do like this one! I find it so interesting to see how many different blog designs there are out there :) Makes me wish I was better at design myself!

    The photo is great too. Never been there before but makes me want to go!

    • Thank you! If you ever visit Vegas, I highly recommend Red Rock, Calico Basin, and Spring Mountain Ranch State Park…all located practically next door to each other.
