January 1 to 4, 2010; Happy New Year to everyone from Desert Hot Spring, California

JAN 1, Friday, Desert Spring
We got up quite late and both with slight hang-over! We went out for breakfast at a small restaurant that Marcel had been told about. Their omelettes were outstanding. From here, we went for a drive into Palm Spring then they took us to a dealer to check the motorhome they had found and were thinking of buying eventually. Then we went for a beer at a casino and came home. We stopped to fill my propane tank then drove to our site where we said goodnight. January Everyone is still slightly hung-over!
The day was warm...low 70’s but it got cloudy late in the afternoon and the temperature dropped so back to wearing a sweater.


JAN 2, Saturday, Golfing and shopping
Val and Audrey went shopping in downtown Desert Spring while Marcel and I went to play golf (9 holes). We paired up with another couple and had a good game. After the game we came home as Marcel had to play guitar for the park’s entertainment. He played for about 2.5 hours singing and joking around with the crowd; it was fun.
We had happy hour at 4 then we went to town to a Bar & Grill to celebrate Marcel’s birthday. The bar usually has entertainment but it turned out not to be for this particular evening so we went to a couple other places but had no luck and ended up at a restaurant called “The Olive Garden”. The meals were very good and we had a good time of course. We came home around 10 pm and called it a night.


JAN 3, Sunday, Desert Hot Spring
Today was a quiet day at home. Val, Audrey and Marcel went for a swim in the morning and were there until 10 am. In the afternoon, Val and I went into town to the bank then came home and read for the rest of the afternoon. We had happy hour at 4 then went to the club house for a hamburger dinner. In the evening we watched a movie.


JAN 4, Monday, Shopping
Marcel, Audrey and Val went swimming first thing in the morning. In the afternoon, we went shopping in Palm Spring area where Audrey and Marcel wanted to get some presents for family and friend back home as they are leaving Wednesday. We spent the day in town and I bought a book on “Window 7” and Audrey ended up buying one too. We went to a local pub on the way back where we had a hamburger and beer then came home and we all called it a day!
