Our Palm Springs (Desert) Weekend

Aunt Mary and Uncle JC graciously invited me and Larry over along with my mom this past holiday weekend to stay with them at their Palm Desert house.  It was awesome.  They have a fantastic and spacious house with plenty of room and a great pool and backyard.  The pool was far too cold to go into but the hot tub was just right.

It was a lot of fun getting to spend time with everyone and we also got to play with their adorable little dog, Sadie.  The experience seemed to put into the forefront that perhaps we could get our own dog very soon.  Wouldn’t that be fun?

Saturday afternoon was spent hanging out, playing games, walking a little bit, enjoying the hot tub, and just overall having a relaxing day. On Sunday morning, we all drove into Palm Springs’ downtown area and walked around, enjoying the hip little strip right there.  In January the temperature is pretty much perfect, but I can’t imagine walking around there in the middle of summer.  Well, I guess I can – we have done so plenty of times when we go to Vegas in summer!

January 17 & 18, 2015 – Palm Springs Fun!

We did the 2-hour drive back home first thing on Monday morning, with enough time to be ready for the latest in my series of interviews.  I’m hoping to hear back soon!
