The dishwasher is a new Bosch model ... very quiet and I think heats the water to 300F or something ... the steam that comes out when you open it can peel your skn off!

People with a local knowledge say they haven't seen those hills so green in many years. And these pinky flowers, too. A truly rare show.
I was said Bob Hope used to live in a house with a flat-domed roof on top of the residential area on the slopes.
P.S. I'm overwhelmingly pleased and surprised with so much attention to this picture. Thank you very much everyone who's been here enjoying the rare sight of 'Green Hills of Palm Springs' 👍
The view from the top of the tram on a chilly, late fall afternoon- Cathedral City is in the center of the picture, with Palm Springs near the bottom and Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert closer to the horizon.
This was the Sunday after Thanksgiving, and if you enlarge the picture to "Original" size and look closely you will see the string of HUNDREDS of cars heading back home to LA and parts west (right to left in the picture) on the 10 freeway which bisects the picture.
We were glad we were staying for one more day!!!
The cholla (pronounced choy-a) is perhaps the most feared and hated cacti in the southwest desert. If you brush up against one, you will know why.
The plant has pads that separate easily from the main stem. The spines easily attach to your clothing, your skin, your shoes. Since the plant is covered with spines, it's difficult to grab and dislodge the pad that has found a new home with you.
well, I really wasn't that thrilled with the actual downtown area of Palm Springs. It was nice to wander through for one evening and eat dinner but if I ever went back I'd give it a miss, I prefer the more "low rent" neighbourhoods where the people live that serve the wealthy residents.

Jan. 30, 2021: A 28-foot tall VW spider watches over a cactus garden at the former Hole in the Wall Welding shop north of Palm Spring, California. Sculpture Bob Miner used a full size 1970 Volkswagen bug as the body of this creation. Miner passed away in 2008, and family members currently live at the site. #palmsprings #roadsideamerica #vwspider #vwbeetle #volkswagen
