Desert Hot Springs to Montana

Dec 12 - 20....Just a little tardy on this weeks blog! We spent this time at the Desert Pools RV park in Desert Hot Springs (north of Palm Springs). The weather has been great (although not as warm as it should be this time of the year). We did some Christmas shopping, tried out the 'hot springs' to heal our ailments, Dixie did a few haircuts and we relaxed a little. On Saturday we went to the famous Palm Springs Follies. This is a Las Vegas style show with the main difference being that the women and men in the show are 55 plus. The oldest 'girl' is 82! From a distance you would never know they are the age they are - they can still sing and dance. Many were retired showgirls & with the Rockettes The show was unbelievable - it was fantastic. The costumes were better than some Las Vegas shows we've seen. The show latest 3 hours which included a comedian/impressionist, canine capers, a special Christmas segment & a special guest star Anacani, a Mexican singer that made her debut on the Lawrence Welk show in the 70's. She still looks the same! We also visited Dixie's brother and niece. On Monday we put the motorhome in storage and flew to Montana where we will spend Christmas with Dixie's family in Great Falls and Hogeland. Then on to Washington to our Daughter's to spend New Years with them. Have a Merry Christmas and we will talk to you again in the New Year!
