( Left-Click on Picture to Enlarge )After three days of clouds and intermittent rain, we have emerged into the light of the southwestern desert in winter. During the time it was raining on the desert floor, it was snowing on Mt San Jacento, so when we awoke this morning with the sun, the snow line made a wonderful contrast with the color of Palm Springs.
The picture above, taken yesterday morning, is overlooking one of the water features on the course here at Outdoor Resorts Palm Springs, a gated condominium RV resort with 1225 lots/owners, and all the politics that entails.
As most of you know by now, Barbara's dad fell and broke his hip in Albuquerque 5 days ago. She is there with him; it it still uncertain if he will make it or not. We talk several times daily . . . cell phones are a great invention. I still have 10 or 11 days before I have to return to work, so have been doing some continuing medical education online and reading (a collection of H.D. Thoreau's letters, re-reading Becker's Denial of Death, and late at night enjoying In a Dry Season, a British police detective story by a new (to me) writer Peter Robinson).
