April 6, 2014

The week has gone by in a flash. Tomorrow we leave for home and we won't have internet until we get there. Said good bye to Rich and Tina on Saturday, but we'll be meeting up with them again on Monday and travelling together for a couple of days. 

We had a very busy fun-filled week and even managed to get in some pool time in between our visits and happy hours. We the whole group headed into Palm Springs on Thursday for dinner at Las Consuelas to celebrate Michel's birthday and Rich and Tina's Anniversary. Dinner was excellent as per usual.

After dinner we took in the Street Market, that happens every Thursday night on the main street in Palm Springs. There were vendors lined up and down the street for probably 6 blocks. So we managed to 'walk off' a couple of those calories that we chomped down at Las Consuelas. 









Our second visit to Dillon Roadhouse in a week.  The first time there was only Rich and Tina and us for $5.00 cheeseburgers. But this Friday night was kareoke night, and  the whole group went down to sing and cash in on 2 for 1 burgers. Sometimes I think all we do is eat. Steve and Doreen are the singers in our group, but there were quite a few other people who got up to entertain us as well. Most with good voices, but a few we wish we didn't have to listen to (lol)..

 Jim and Sharon are friends of Rich and Tina's who came down to join us for a brew. We all had a great time. Dillon Roadhouse is a very popular bar and it is patronized not only by the locals, but also by the snowbirds who 'flock' down to spent their winters in the area.
