On Holiday: Three Months in Palm Springs!

February thru April 2007

 

The Dads rent a house in Palm Springs.

Sebastian has had it with the wet San Francisco winters!  SO, the Dads rented him a mid-century Alexander in Palm Springs!  Look at all the space to guard!  Everyone loved it so much, that the family put the River house on the market, and started looking for a permanent winter home in the desert!

Where's Glen?  Sebastian loves to Swim . . . but he didn't care much for the pool.  He went in, if a Dad took him, but headed right for the stairs.  Maybe the water was just not muddy enough, or was it the saline?

 

Smiling Puppy loved the Feeding Place!

 

With 4 Bedrooms, there was lots of room for company!
Fred & Gary came from San Francisco and got a whippin' at Monopoly (Dad Scot whipped up some great food too)!
 

 

 

 

Next . . . !  Friends Jacki and Chris arrive from Healdsburg!
Another great weekend, begun with liberal servings of Margaritas!

 

Time to Cool off.  Sebastian didn't much like the pool.

 

A Sarong Party! (Sarongs by Christina of Puerto Vallarta).  Whydidja put me in this thing?
A much more dignified look.  Sebastian loved the yard and all the grass.  It was great for making brown spots.

 

Croquet.  Champagne, water cress sandwiches and dress whites . . . sort of . . .

 

 

A Trip on the famous Palm Springs Aerial Tram.  The base station, rotating tram car and Glen & Scot up top.
Here is the route to 8,000 feet, and the view of the Coachella Valley, from Mountain Station.
