Modernism Week -Palm Springs

So during the Modernism week in Palm Springs, there was an architectural bike tour which went through the neatest neighbourhoods and you get to see very interesting houses.


Heading to the starting point

The best looking team EVER! Free T-Shirt as well!

If you zoom in you can read some of the houses etc that are features along the bike route.

Stop for a photo opp!


Rare Avanti automobile. Actually there were two across the street from each other.


Elvis Presley's house and honeymoon getaway with Priscilla. 

Marilyn Monroe's house.

This house was Dinah Shore's (it was actually built for her). It is now owned by Leonardo De Caprio. And he rents it out when he is not there. As you can see there are two people entering it in the picture.

Gotta have a cold one at Street Bar when we were done. Yum!!

Ran across the street to Score Bar for their Saturday bingo! Won free drinks and Steve won a Score Bar T -Shirt.

Enjoying our free drinks on their patio.

Painted Canyon and Salton Sea

Decided to take the coaches out for a run. Stayed two nights at the Salton Sea, one hour south of Palm Springs with Shawn, Chris and Lucy. 


Parked along the sea. 



Happy Hour!

Off to the Painted Canyon.


Just going to post the hike with all pics. 





Very narrow path carved by millions of years of water flowing down from the mountains.



At top of mountains.



Had to carry the two dogs down the seven ladders.


Two and a half hours later we made it!
