24th November, 2016. Thanksgiving Day in Palm Desert with friends

As in our prior updates the mornings are unbelievably beautiful and we have a great day planned. We are up early and following breakfast and completing a load of washing, we depart and drive along Scott Street and then onto the Interstate 10 West and we head toward Palm Springs to photograph the Wind farms and the desert colours. Just amazing colours, topography and the stark beauty of the desert.

Then at 11.45am Jim and Lani, visit, we show them the beautiful resort and our lockout 2 bedroom suite before we depart for a family Thanksgiving lunch at Hilton Palm Spings, which is about a 30-40 manure drive.

There we enjoy a beautiful buffet luncheon, meet Jim's daughter, son and grandsons.  We enjoy a most enjoyable afternoon.  We feel privileged to have such friends who involve us in special family events on this very special American day.
