Trip to the Desert

Eat your hearts out you badgers and swamp yankees. I stayed in this hotel/resort when I interviewed with the Family "Y" at Palm Desert California. Good experience!



The pool is just a hole with a cement bottom & a bunch of pipes sticking out. The bath house, concession room, offices, and mechanical room are just shells now; but the center is scheduled to open Memorial Day weekend.

Yes, it was beautiful and warm.


The swimming pool at the resort looked over a golf course where a buch of duffers hacked a way. But how would I know what they were doing since I have never played a hole of golf and wouldn't know which way to hold the cue.


While there I walked both nights about 4.2 and 5.5 miles. On the second night John's restaurant appeared and I had to try it out. It might become a favorite with me.


Hope it works out and you all can come to visit , or not. The job is a good match and would be both fun and a challenge.

Looks nice and warm, maybe we'll spend our winters there and summers in RI..... Did they tell you how much vacation time you get?

I love it there! I will be insanely jealous if you move there (except May thru September.) Hope you get the job - I think you'll be happy there.
