Palm Springs

Our final destination is the greater Palm Springs area. Jerry joined the Elks because they offer quite a bonus: RV camping facilities. These are less expensive than campgrounds, nicer than Walmart (they have water and electricity and sometimes a full hookup) and located within towns. They have been our places of “abode”for most of this trip. The one in Palm Springs is well suited for our desert plans.

We reconnected with Fran and Bill from our Canadian Maritimes trip five years ago.

We enjoyed a delicious prix fixe dinner at Trios then wandered the Palm Springs Street Market.


Both the art and the participants were eclectic. Being with friends was the best part of the evening.

We wrapped up our trip with more dining and shopping. Anna Lee did have a problem. She brought sandals for the warm weather weather but, when she pulled them out, she found that she brought two left shoes. Oh well, its time for new ones anyway. Keedy’s was on Mark’s list for breakfast and the Yarn Shop was on Ellen’s list. We found both sites worth our time.

After a horrendous two hour construction creep along I 10, (two hours to move four miles) we are paying our respects to Walmart in Bakersfield and then on to home. Look forward to being with you all when we head out again in the spring.
