April 13-19

Thursday we drove the Palms to Pines Scenic Byway to pick up our friends, Gary and Carrie, from the Palm Springs Airport. We're all fully vaccinated so were able to hug, visit and occupy the same indoor space mask free! 😁 It's the first time we've socialized "normally" in over a year and boy did it feel great.
Friday we hiked six miles of the Dripping Springs Trail. With a 2000 ft gain in elevation we were treated to some gorgeous views. https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/cleveland/recar…
Saturday morning was spent playing pickleball with the couple who introduced us to the sport 20 years ago, followed by wine tasting at Hawk Watch Winery. https://hawkwatchwinery.com/
After a morning of pickleball, on Sunday, we toured Ricardo Breceda's outdoor gallery http://ricardobreceda.com/ then hit the De Portola Wine Trail in Temecula with a flight and lunch at Fazeli Cellars https://fazelicellars.com followed by a tasting at Leoness Cellars https://www.leonesscellars.com/mobile/ then stopping for dinner at In-N-Out Burgers on the way home.
This morning we continued with some fierce competition on the courts after which we enjoyed a leisurely brunch before heading back to Palm Springs to bid our friends a sad farewell.
What a fantastic five days we had!Meer informatie
