| Page Views: 23,130 Last Visit to Palm Springs: November, 2002 | Thanksgiving in Palm Springs, CA by annk - last update: May 28, 2003 |
Since my husband and I don't have any relatives in California (closest across the country) we decided to take advantage of the long weekend and "see" something new. Not that we haven't been to Palm Springs before, but previously (before VT) it was to play golf and chill out.
Palm Springs is located in the the upper Colorado Desert and boasts having 350 days of sunshine. It is a resort city known for it's warm climate, numerous golf courses (over 90) mineral springs and fabulous shopping. The area has attracted celebrities, many of which have homes here and retirees but is a great destination for every age & budget. There are 8 desert resort cities, each with it's own personality, but many refer to the whole area as "Palm Springs". |

It sounds like the tram to the top of Mt. St. Jacinto was quite the adventure. I wonder how one would find out how much snow there was at the top the day you want to go? | icunme Sat Oct 14, 2006 00:57 UTC
