It's not Alaska but I didn't need a coat -OT

Thought I'd share a few pics of the golf course at Shadow Ridge in Rancho Mirage/Palm Desert, CA and surrounding mts. The cell phone camera didn't do the San San Bernardino Mts or mts in Joshua Tree National Monument justice - my bad.

The mountain ranges create the Coachella Valley where Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, etc., are. Reportedly there is a huge aquifer under the valley explaining all the water that's available. I like this area of So CAL almost as much as the area I lived in just east of Napa Valley, i.e., Green Valley.

Last nights dinner (prime grade sirloin, asparaus with mushrooms) was cooked on a gasser that got to 600 degrees. No pics as I was too miffed trying to get one of four units lit . Don't know where I'll cook tonight but it's steak night again :woohoo: It's not pretty going cold turkey from your egg(s) :( .







I'll try for some more shots in the AM during my walk when the air clearer.
