Palm Springs averages 5 days of rain in the winter….we’ve experienced 2 of them! So it’s been good days to laze around and catch up on emails, crib and rummy games, hot tub time, some pilates, and reading (yes Linda is into her second book!)
Wednesday and Thursday, before the rains, we golfed at Desert Dunes and Mesquite; Linda spent an incredible amount of time in sand, on both courses, and Ron had better rounds! We have been paired with really nice people on the courses and enjoyed the days.
We have also met many ‘residents’ around this resort from “home”; Rosalind, Camrose and Viking AB. It truly is a small world with the ‘6 degrees of separation’.
So it is time to move on; we have spent 15 wonderful days here in Palm Springs (we are already thinking of booking for next January and Linda has been touring the park for that “perfect spot”). Trips to down town Palm Springs each Thursday evening for the street festival, 2 trips to the C.O.D. Street Fair on the weekends, a couple of happy hours at “Islands” (the best sliders!), the aerial tram, and Joshua tree park. Trader Joe’s is a great place to shop for groceries as they have many unique and delicious foods. We’ve commented on some of the crazy drivers here. Speed limits are 45 – 55 MPH on most roads and traffic lights are still every couple of blocks, so the brakes get a work outJ Can you believe Ron has a tough time keeping up? To Borrego Springs.....
