Our last week in California!

Jan 15 - 21....Back in the Palm Springs area. Sunday night we stayed at Desert Pools RV in Desert Hot Springs where we had friends that we met on the road over for dinner. On Monday we parked next to a Motel in Palm Desert. (a friend of ours is staying here while he works the golf tourney - he sells golf memorabilia). On Tue we met up with friends from Montana (Jim & Diane) and went to the practice rounds for the Bob Hope Classic at the Classic Club. On Thursday we took the motor home in to have some warranty items looked at while we all went to the Golf Tournament again. The tournament is being played at 4 different courses - Thursday we went to the LaQuinta Country Club which was were the celebrities were playing with some of the pros. A few of the celebrities we saw were .....Mathew McConaughey, Craig T. Nelson, Samuel L. Jackson, Rush Limbaugh, Yogi Beara, Roger Clemens (the Rocket from Houston) and my personal favorite Michael Bolton!!! Mike did something he wouldn't normally do - he had Roger Clemens sign his Texas Longhorn cap! All in all we had a great time. On Thursday we moved to Indian Waters RV park in Indio. Dixie's parents drove over on Friday from Lake Havasu for a visit. The guys are at the golf tourney again today (this time at the new Classic course) while us girls are staying with Lexi (our niece). We are going to dinner tonight to celebrate Dixie's 49th Birthday!!!! My birthday present from Mike was a book on 'Beginners Women's Golf'. I might get better someday so I can actually play a round! We head out on Monday to spend a few days in Quartzsite, AZ. There is a LARGE RV show there this week. Literally thousands of RV camped out in the desert. Next Saturday we will arrive at Lake Havasu, AZ and spend the month of Feb. there.
