Club Intrawest Palm Desert

... God. Apparently they were up there experiencing his wonder and stuff – which is fine by me but I could probably have used the time on actually looking at said wonder. I cunningly directed them the big trees at Humbolt – as they are wonderful – and made my excuses.

The scenic lookout was swamped by more people from the same group and as they were mid sermon I couldn’t really push ...

... the S3 and TR6 are both small cars so I can manage. After and age of paperwork that required 25 signatures and a mini-lease agreement I went out to collect the chariot. OMG the correct expression would have been HOS (heap of sh*t) – I know this was cheap but the car was terrible. Small, filthy, stained and uncomfortable. My first instinct was to go back in and ask for another – but the lady serving me had had such a ...

... outlet mall wasn't quite what we were expecting. Looked around for parking for over an hour just for us to realize that we couldn't handle the madness! Mile-long lines coming out of every store that was just not worth the wait. Driving back, got stuck in traffic for an hour and then got lost coming home. Ahhhh! Tuesday night went over to yayas for authentic Mexican food! Tofu-tamales! So good, along ...

... When I say 'Ain't no', you say, 'Thang'!" chant we had made it this far. I slaughtered it many times though with my 'honky' ways.
-The gusts of cold air only can raise the spirits of Martin and myself at the summit of San Jacinto at 10,834 feet. The wind chill at the top is in the teens according to a ranger who passed us earlier on the trail. We hunker down amongst some boulders basking in the sun and eat our granola bars and last bits of jerky. We have ...

... medieval.

Topping it off were the multiple factions of friends we got to experience it with. It's always cool when worlds collide at such a fun event. The grounds were at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. It was beautiful, the best weather. The guy who does the lighting for their shows had 140 palm trees surrounding the venue lit up as well. He also rigged the first 20 or so out from each side of the stage ...

Good morning from 29 Palms Golf Resort. Our first night spent camping was a success. I am surprised that I slept pretty well and I even slept through the entire night.... in a car!!!

We are actually in an RV Park, which is quite a strange introduction to camping. When I think of camping, I imagine lush greenery and perhaps a ...

... our reunion.  After calling Kirby during one of very few times I had service in North Fork, she told us we were more than welcome to come visit at any time and seeing as one plan after another kept falling through for life after the Kerns, we took her up on her offer on two days notice and I made the seven hour drive from Sierra Nevada bliss to civilization and the suburbs of Desert Palm, California.  At this point in time I feel it is more than necessary to mention the ...

... wird selbstverständlich fast jeden Tag und die Menüs reichen von selbstgemachten Fajitas über Risotto bis hin zu Pouletgeschnetzeltem mit Nüdeli. Ein Menüplan ist selbstverständlich vorhanden und auch eine Haushaltskasse wird sorgfältig geführt. Dies soll ein Appell an unsere Eltern sein, schliesslich hat man uns ja nicht geglaubt dass wir überlebensfähig sind. Nachdem die Schule fertig ist werden wir uns am 26. Oktober 2008 wieder auf Reisen machen.

... animals
running onto the street. We took the palm springs aerial tram up onto
the mountains. The 10 minute ride gives you amazing vies of the
mountains. It is a very pretty place to see and our last stop. I loved
our time here in California and there are many memories we will take
back with us.

... man. This guy has to pay $100 for a facial when he goes golfing to keep her happy and behind the closed doors of the bedroom well lets not go there I cant say on this site but poor man.
