Palm Springs: A Photo Diary

Palm Springs was everything I could of hoped for and more! We spent the weekend lounging in the pool, listening to Neko Case & The National (perfect desert music, I must confess), and played board games until the cows came home. We had chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, watermelon for lunch and barbecue chicken for dinner. The only time we left the house was to take a field trip to The Ace Hotel for a midnight cocktail under the stars. I do believe I returned home three shades browner, two pounds heavier and an infinitely and thankfully more relaxed.

Goodbye Summer

This weekend marks the official last weekend of Summer. (It's Sept. 21st to be exact) And I'm going to live.it.up.  Four girls, three cars, two dogs and one boy are headed to Palm Springs for a weekend of pure relaxation. I plan to swim, eat, sleep; rinse and repeat.  There will popsicles and watermelon and barbecue chicken and sparklers and everything else that sings Summer. And when we return, Fall shall be upon us and another chapter shall begin.

So, so long Summer.  You've been swell!
