Indian Waters

Sat. Feb 29 -

This past week has been spent at an RV resort called Indian Waters in Indio, one of many cities considered a part of Palm Springs.  The park has about 200 nice sites with amenities such as pools, spas, and pickle ball courts.  We have been able to meet up with our friends Rory and Sue from Sedalia who spend winters in Palm Springs and spent some time with a Mike and Diane who live in La Quinta.  

We’ve played pickle ball almost daily, and I have taken a couple of line dancing classes.  John has struggled with the pickle ball due to a pulled leg muscle but he keeps working at it.

Yesterday morning I signed us up to go on a hike with a group from the park.  The 17 folks hiked the Cove to the Lake Trail near Lake Cahuilla, a 7.7 mile out and back hike.  The day started off cloudy which kept it nice and cool but as the morning wore on the sun came out and beat down on us.  We have hiked parts of the trail in the past where it adjoins a vibrantly green private golf course.  This time a couple of mountain sheep crossed the path on their way to nibble on that green grass.  
After lunch and naps we played bocci ball and dined with Mike and Diane. We almost didn’t make it to pickle ball this morning as we found it very hard to get out of bed!
