There have been rumors that there will be big changes in Google+, including separating out photos from streams. What I am hoping is that uploaded photos will be exposed on Google Drive - if that happens, it will pretty easy to sync photos back down to your phone. There is a great Google Drive sync app called Drive Autosync that could do this really well.
As I said, though, for now you can *SEE* the photos in Google+ in the Photos app on the phone, along with locally stored photos.
