I spent the last week of December in Palm Desert. It was definitely the right time of the year to be visiting Palm Desert.
I was there to help with the opening of our newest Bristol Farms. It will be opening the first week of January. It is a beautiful store.
Palm Desert is a place I would love to retire when I am older but we will see. I have strong attachments to this area I am living in now.
I was able to take a picture of this hot air balloon on one of the last days I was in Palm Desert. It was the first day we were able to get off while it was still light outside. While I was driving back to the hotel, I noticed a couple of balloons making their descent before the sun set in the horizon. The fire lighting up the balloon was beautifle against the darkening sky. The fire actually lit up the balloon which lightened up balloon for the picture.
I was there the same week President Ford died in a neighboring town, Rancho Mirage. I didn't attend the viewing because I didn't want to wait in a long line.
