Our Winter: 1 Weekend!

(Readers from Michigan and other snowy, cold parts may want to skip this post! ;)


The inevitable happened this weekend, we finally experienced winter on the road! It lasted Friday, Saturday and part of Sunday. Now, can we can continue with the nice weather?

Being from the Midwest, we've never seen anything like this. Everything 2,000 Ft and above received snow most of the day on Saturday. We are down in the Coachella Valley, around 150-200ft, we got rain. By, this morning, on the mountains that surround us, it looks like someone drew a line all the way along the mountain range. Everything above the line, snow (30+ inches above 7,000 ft), everything below, rain, clouds and mid forties! I thought the desert in the foreground made and interesting contrast! For people from the area, no big deal. For a lifetime Midwesterner, strange sight!

So, we used the washed out weekend to get some clean up done inside the motorhome. I also organized all the tax stuff to send off to the accountant ( I HATE doing the tax stuff!)

The good news is, it's supposed to be back in the 80's by mid-week! Whew, winter was tough :)

If you like Mexican food, try the Blue Coyote in Palm Springs. We had an excellent meal there when we were at Catalina.
