Thursday, January 26, 2012 -- Started the day out by taking the truck, yes I took the truck girls, only went 1/2 mile down the road. Went to get my hair cut, never quite sure what to expect by having a stranger cut your hair. This place charges $20.00 for a hair cut (trim), which includes shampoo and blow dry. I only needed a trim, but got the shampoo anyhow, I went back to trailer to do my own. Hair cut was fine.

Then we went tire shopping. Dang I hate buying tires. Bob meant to do this before leaving home, but just never got to around to doing it. Soooo we bought tires for the truck today. Shopped at Sam's and back to resort for Happy Hour.

Now to report (kids say "did we ask") the temperature today was a high of 84 degrees and beautiful sunny day. So enjoying the weather very much.

This is Cathedral City, CA. The mountain was so big looking down the street.

We are back in Desert Hot Springs, CA. We were here last year. Beautiful area. This area has numerous wind turbines. The area is prone for windy weather, except for today. We didn't have any wind to speak of, in fact the wind mills were hardly moving.

Wednesday, January 25, 2012 -- We have arrived at our next stop at Desert Hot Springs, CA. We will be here for 12 days.

Met up with our friends Duke & Donna. Had happy hour with them and some other people. Duke & Donna are like magnets. They have met up with so many people over their travels that different ones are there for happy hour. We knew two other couple from other places we have been.

With crossed fingers I have an appointment to get my hair trimmed. It is never quite the same going to different hair dressers.

This is a very nice resort and the warmest temperatures. It is to be in the high 70's and low 80's for the next seven days. It got to 81 degress today. Very windy, but temperature was so nice. The winds are to calm down.

I guess we found a lost bird. Took this picture out our back window of the trailer. This is a Roadrunner. Looking this bird up it is the state bird of New Mexico and we are in California.

Almost to the resort. Great mountain. Our resort is on the road.
