Same old, same old...

Just another few days in the heat of Palm Desert! The past few days with Jody visiting us have been relaxing and fun. We've spent time sitting around the pool - reading books, doing a few laps, or sitting in the hot tub. Then it is time for dinner followed by coffee on the patio.
Today we set out for Thousand Palms Oasis for a hike. It was already hot when we left around 10:oo am and we baked as we walked out to MacCallum Pond. It felt good sitting in the shade around the pond and we hated to leave. The only life we saw the whole way out and back were a couple of speedy lizards and two dazzling red dragonflies. The hike back was slightly better because there was a mild, cool breeze blowing. We were glad to get back home and soon headed back to the pool to sit in the shade and read books!
Tomorrow we are heading to San Diego for three days. The forecast is for rain and cooler weather but that might feel good after a plus 90 day today!
