THE POST BIRTHDAY PRESENT & SOME SNOW






How about this? The coldest we've ever felt it in Palm Springs was last night----34 degrees. It rained much of Friday and most of Saturday. Then when the clouds lifted we had these beautiful sunrise views of the snow covered mountains. I did ride in the 35 degree temperatures in my pajamas in the golf cart to get these fabulous photos for you. Actually Ron took one of them just a bit later than sunrise. When I returned Steve was headed to the showers. Anyway enough of my fun pictures. Now to the big news.

Finally this morning Steve's birthday gift to Dad arrived. Steve had hoped it would be here last week, but it still needed some work. So Steve came out again this weekend to be here for the delivery. The golf cart arrived this morning. It is gorgeous. Dad was totally overwhelmed. He cannot believe what Steve and all his kids do for him. He actually choked up once or twice. He isn't accepting that we can't do enough for him after all he has never ceased to do for us. He is moved and very grateful. Steve has really gone all out this time. Just look at this little beauty. Enjoy. Dad intends to.

Great golf cart! Congrats to Grandpa. The snow is beautiful too. I've never seen such a thing in Palm Springs.

I know that Grandpa appriciates all of his children's kindness and generousity. It's so wonderful to see that everyone cares so much. This will make his Palm Spring experience a little more fun.
(Nice pics mum-thanks for going out of your way to take them)

Can I ride it sometimes?
