Happy St Patrick's Day to You!

“May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.”

We are enjoying our time here in the Palm Springs area. We have shopped, done some site seeing, walked, eaten at some good places, and met lots of very nice people. Bob figured out how to get the dish hooked up for satellite TV. He brought a free dish with him and we brought one of the receivers from home. On one of the boards he follows, he found a neat stand to make and it all works. We are enjoying some of the "Road to the Final Four" games when we are around.

We like this RV park, but when it is windy in the area, it is very, very, very windy out here. Of course everyone says "it has never been this bad before". Could be. Today is cooler with a little drizzle now and then and some low hanging clouds. This is a picture from when we were heading out of the park this morning and there are lots and lots of the wind generators in this valley. That should have given us a clue that it might be a bit windy in this area, huh? We don't see them from our site in the park and the park is very nice, clean, well maintained and the lots are huge. Because most folks own their own lots, it has the feel of a neighborhood and everyone is really nice.

We have two other couples heading into the Palm Springs area at the end of next week and we will enjoy doing some things together although we are all staying in different places.
