Around 10:00 last night the wind started slowing down. This morning it appeared to be kinda calm, but a little while later it picked up again. But nothing like yesterday. We didn't see any blowing sand today.

We went to breakfast at the club house today. Looked at the hot tubs. The temperature of the three are 98, 100, 104 degrees. There was a sign up about the hot mineral spring water that is in the pools. The hotest temperature of the water coming out of the ground is 142 degeees and they had gone down 265 feet. The farther they went down the cooler the water gets. Very interesting.

Went for a drive late after and ate at Applebees in Palm Desert, located on Frank Sinatra.

We have now found Bob Hope and Frank Sinatra Roads. Something you don't see everyday.

We made the move this morning for our next resort. It is very windy too. Bob says it is probably 50 to 60 miles per hour. This started about 3:00 yesterday and it has still been continuing. During our drive today there was blowing sand. It was so surprising how the clouds covered the top of the mountains and the blowing sand in places made seeing the mountains difficult.

So we are now at Desert Hot Springs. We will be here for two weeks. The name of this resort is Desert Pools RV Resort, named this way because this is the area of natural mineral springs. They have three hot tubs that are fed with hot natural mineral spring water. Each one is set at a different temperature. We haven't seen them yet because of the very windy weather. Hopefully I have understood the mineral spring waters here.

Regarding our Microwave problem: We have decided to live without the use of the microwave. As I remember we didn't use to have microwaves. The company we reached about our problem will send the part to our house. Bob can fix it after we get home. If I have a problem cooking ------ we will just eat out. LOL
