Palm Springs here I come...

[Tzclark]

In 3 weeks.

Coming to hit some golf balls and get away for a bit.

Two questions for people in the know.
1 - What's your favourite place to eat.
2 - Anything cool car related I should see?

All good, tons of food choices. Take the Tram. There are some bitchin Canyon roads around there too. If you have time, circle the Saltan Sea clockwise. This is Box Canyon. Stop at the Ski Inn for a beer.

For fine dining we like the Cliff House in Indian Wells. It's a great building and
have always had good food.

On the Palm Springs Tram, I think it was 104 on the valley floor, and 74 degrees upstairs. What a ride! Went on mule ride up there. Don't ride "Punie". Size of a large dog and you have to bend your legs to not touch the ground. The day we were there, an Olds Diesel burned to the ground on the ascent to the Tram base. Thus the turn off ac signs.

Dennis, you put some miles on that ride of yours. Very cool.


I hope to get some long drives in one day.

Bring some alternate AC just in case. The desert can get mighty warm this time of year....

Palm Springs? I don't see no stinking springs. Looks more like Palm Desert to me.

My favorites: Eight4Nine, Trio, Lulu's, and Jakes, all on Palm Canyon Drive.

Billy Reed's. 1800 N. Palm Canyon, been there since the early 70's......excellent food, atmosphere and vibe. Billy himself is usually there every evening....
I lived in Palm Springs in the late 70's and this was always one of the great places to hang out, still is........the Ceasar burger is a favorite but anything is good!
