Day 3 was a drive from our overnight in Tehachapi to Indio, California. Wanting to avoid traffic anywhere near Los Angeles, we took a longer route through Barstow and a bunch of Valleys (Lucerne, Yucca and Morongo) to Interstate 10. Once in the Palm Springs area we spent five night with neighbors and then four nights with neighbors. It's really great to have nice neighbors.
During the ten days we were there we visited the Palm Springs Tram (highly recommended), Living Desert (Ditto) and the Palm Springs Street Fest (another ditto.) There was an abundance of expensive cars (like Bentleys) and Bloody Mary's, as well as some really great restaurants.
Temps were in the mid to high 90's, with blue skies and cooling in the evening. All in all it was tough to leave good friends and head off to Arizona.
So that takes me to day 12, which was a drive from La Quinta, California to an overnight in Avondale, Arizona. A free night at a Courtyard took us a little out of our way, but a free night is a free night. In the evening we visited with old friends from home that now live in Surprise, Arizona. Had a great time and meal.
Tomorrow we are off to Sun CIty Festival to once again look at homes. Is this the year we pull the trigger and make a move South?
