Indio, California (Palm Springs)

Back in sunny California again.  It's a little warmer now than it was when we left on January 2nd this year.  We arrived at the start of a 2-day heat wave with temperatures around 105 degrees F.  Lucky for us that the RV park has 3 pools and 2 spas, and lucky for the dogs that the RV has air conditioning!

There are a lot of Canadians staying in this park.  We really miss Texas.  People just aren't as friendly as they are there.  And there's no Texas BBQ here either.  Am I whining?  Get used to it...

A guy just pulled in that we met in Roswell at the park we were staying at.  He had said his wife had some golf tournaments here in La Quinta the first week of April, so we told him about this park, and here he is!  Kind of cool to see someone further down the road again!

The citrus trees here had more fruit on them in December than they do now, and there were more hummngbirds flitting about, so I guess some of them have started to move a bit northward.  Even though we kind of know that once we start moving northward in a week or so, the weather isn't going to be summer-like anymore, we are still going to be in denial til we get into it!  We will be in Oregon around April 18th, and back in Canada at the beginning of May. 

Time to go lounge by the pool, then barbecue some chicken for supper.  I'll add some photos to this later :)  Meanwhile, check out the Photorama and Random Observations pages for photos from Texas and Arizona...
