The purpose of this blog is to jot down the various day to day goings on at Chaps Inn, Palm Springs, California in the hope it might give me inspiration to write 'the book' I've been talking about for years! I have been inspired in part by the movie Julie and Julia which I saw yesterday. I am not, at the moment asking for comments as I want this to be my notebook for the future. I will also mention this is not intended as an advertisement for our hotel.
There will be various players throughout this blog who will be mentioned often, first, my husband of 24 years, Stuart without whom I wouldn't be sitting here in Palm Springs writing this. Our friends Dennis and AJ (my movie companions), Erich & Doug (architects), Mike & John currently our neighbours. Mike is a maths professor and John is a bon vivant.
We have lived in Palm Springs as owners of Chaps Inn for nearly 9 years and love it. We hope to be here for many more years.
I have already written a few chapters of our early years and have shared them with my 'girls', all in England. My sister Maxine, friends Pegi, Jane and Caroline who probably know more than they should about a gay mans hotel!!!!
