Schools are closed for the whole week but in order to be in town for a cello recital (not optional), avoid holiday traffic, and have time to cook we decided to take a two-person 26-hour vacation.
After stopping at the mall (who knew it would be crowded on a Sunday at 4:30 in the afternoon??) we made it to Palm Springs in time for a Thai dinner and to walk around.
 |
| We found a cute motel not far from the center of town. |
 |
| The highlight of the day was riding the aerial tramway. Even the drive there was great. |
 |
| The floor rotates so as we went up we had views heading up and looking down. |
 |
Once we were on top we had a fantastic little hike with views and rocks to climb.
Unfortunately we did not see any animals and the place to rent snowshoes was not open. |
 |
| Not great for trees, but fun to look at. Photo by A. |
 |
| Nice view on the way down. It is clear to see where the water runs. |
After leaving Palm Springs we stopped at Hadley's to buy dates and the outlet mall to buy almost nothing (a sweater and pair of socks).
Good to go away and good to get home!
