We spent a week in Desert Hot Springs at the Caliente Hot Springs RV Park. The weather was warm enough to enjoy the hot pools and we met some very nice people. As usual in DHS the wind blew a lot. That’s why they put the windmills there!
Right outside our window was an olive tree, and in the morning we could watch the birds and the squirrels scampering around under the tree. I caught this picture of the back end of this squirrel through the window one morning.
We had beautiful sunsets at the park as you can see. The desert does have its own kind of beauty!
We spent a week in Indio tying up our last visits to Doctors and getting ready to leave for the summer.
While we were in Indio we were able to attend granddaughter Aubrey’s Ballet lesson.
Aubrey is following her teacher's instructions--she now wants to be a teacher when she grows up!
Then on to Lancaster in our first leg of the journey north!
We all had dinner at Laurie’s home the first night we were there and we gave Eldon his Hoppy bunny. It sings the “At the Hop” song when you squeeze his foot.
We spent four days in Lancaster, Helped Allie and Rachel in their back yard and just visited a lot with all Laurie’s family.
On Sunday Laurie, Rachel, Eldon, Colin and Dixie all went to China Town down in LA and to Griffith Park. The Chinese restaurant we went to was really different. As you can see in the picture below, all the food was brought on big wheeled trays and put on the table. I didn’t know what I was eating!
Eldon liked to feet his Granny!
After Lunch we went shopping in a couple of the little shops nearby.
Eldon was more interested in the bubble drink than buying a hat!
On to Griffith Park and a ride on the little train. Eldon didn’t want anything to do with the ponies. He’s a little too young.
The train and the train ride with mommy, Rachel. Awe!
Our last night in Lancaster we went out to dinner with Laurie and her friend from work. Found out that his mother and I both went to the same high school in Bell Gardens. She graduated in 1959, and me in 1961. It is a small world!
We drove north on Tuesday, May 3 to visit our friends Rick and Pam Past at their temporary home in Ridgecrest, CA.
