PS the Desert



Spent the entire day in the Palm Springs area yesterday. Kenny wanted to take the boys to the desert, visit the Salton Sea and climb rocks in Joshua Tree. We started early, but did not leave until about 8a got to Palm Springs by 11 and had brunch at Elmers.

Then it was onto the Salton Sea. It's a stunning spot, but I can also see why it doesn't make it onto many must see lists. You can see how beautiful it is, but what you can't detect is the faint putrid smell coming from the sea. After we'd had our fill, we drove back towards Palm Springs and Joshua Tree.


The next few hours were spent roaming the park picking out cool rocks to climb. The destination of the day was Skull Rock. The boys had so much fun traipsing over these big boulders.

We ended our long day at Ruby's Diner on the way out of Palm Springs. This one is located near the Morongo Casino Resort and the Outlet Mall. We totally lucked out because it was Kids Eat Free Night and the food was really yummy.

We got some nice shots of our day in the Desert.

and met some dinosaurs along the way!
