Indio

Last weekend, Jen, Ross and I drove down to Indio to visit my Mom and Mark on their trip, to stay with them in Indio to visit with Chole. I don't get to see Chole that much, so even though this was a short weekend, I was glad to have it at all! Indio was very hot, but it's oven heat... so it doesn't feel bad. Just warm, like a blanket. However, it was very inspiring, this heat... for us to get into the pools. They had a "lazy river" at this place, which is basically a curvy river with a strong current to push you along. I liked this much better than a pool.. in a pool, you kind of stand there and talk with your friends, and bounce up and down in the water. Well this, we were able to talk and be doing something the whole time. Playing in this current, and having all kinds of scenery. It was like, falling off the boat in a ride at Disneyland. You could rent tubes, which we did, but we ditched them because it was more fun to be IN the water. Anyway, Jolly good time. We had a fun BBQ on Saturday night, and drank and drank. Steaks, Chicken, Veggies... what a good meal! This was a fun short trip, plus we got fifty bucks to sit for an hour listening to a sales pitch. wonderful, that paid for the bbq and breakfast the next day.


thrifty......!
