Summer Holiday!!

I was suddenly reminded of a song from the 60's .... Sir Cliff Richard, Summer Holiday (it's a movie AND a song)

We're all going on a summer holiday,
No more working for a week or two.
Sun and laughter on a summer holiday,
Will make your dreans come true! For a week or two!

OK, Its not Irving Berlin

Not complaining .... it is H O T!!! 98 degrees at 6.30pm

And then .... 2 days later ...... humid, humid, humid. Not to worry. Spectacular lightening in the mountains last night. Spots of rain today just to spite me after doing my usual wash down this morning. Rain in the desert is not pretty .... I needn't have bothered getting the car cleaned. Moan, moan!!!!

This weekend is the final hurrah for the season for us. Full, full, full. I can't say why or what event is happening but we are one of the local 'overflow' hotels!!!!! (Strict instructions!).

We are getting ready for our vacation leaving here Thursday 19th . Dennis AJ and Patrick move in on Wednesday. We drive north Thursday morning spending the night at Harris Ranch then continuing up to Guernville Friday morning.  Dore alley 29th!!!!!! Woooh hooh!

July 4th, 2012

Whoever thought of putting July 4th on a Wednesday needs shooting with a musket!! Anyway, what started off as mediocre reservations turned into  'not too bad', ending up 80% full last night with some people staying over the weekend and new arrivals today! Hoorah!!!!!! Most people staying are from California but we also have visitors from Vancouver, New York and Salt Lake City. The cross was put to good use!

We had our usual great view of the Palm Springs fireworks display from the balconey except this year we had the least number of people up there with us!!! Anyway, we oooohed and aaaahed as usual. Great show Palm Springs!!!!!
