  I’m back and feeling better…kind of

Let's just say that traveling when your feeling sick sucks! Everything went wrong from the beginning of the travel day all the way to the end of it. It started snowing, we missed our 1:45 pm flight as there was an accident on the beltway and we were literally at a stand still for 2 1/2 hours. We finally got a flight out at 6:30. Many more bad things to happen...but I don't want to bore you guys. I felt terrible for 2 days and than I started having a great time. Relaxing, shopping, drinking, eating, looking at model homes. It was fabulous. I'm feeling much better but I still have lots of congestion in my chest. This is nothing compared to what I was feeling. I did not want to come home. Palm Springs is absolutely gorgeous. It was about 70 degrees every day. Just beautiful! I'm trying to talk my DH into retiring there. I really need to work on him...don't you think?

I am going to put some of the photos in an album. I just have to share some of them with you on this post. I took so many beautiful pictures that it is so hard to pick and choose which ones to put on my blog. Here are a few that I love...

This beautiful view is on El Paseo Drive. The Rodeo of Palm Springs. Are Palm trees and mountains beautiful or what? One day I am going to have some Palm trees in my back yard with a mountain view! We can dream, right?

This beautiful water feature is in the front of our hotel. Just lovely!

I can't believe I found the LYS. I just had to get a picture of this. I ended up buying some needles for my Rogue and some beautiful Rosewood DPN's.

We saw this on the side of the road and I made Jeanne stop the car so I could get a pic.

Steve, Jeanne, me of course and Rick. This pic was right before we had to leave to come back home. :-(
I know that there are lots of pictures...but I just couldn't help myself.

Look what I received in the mail from Agnes (one of the knitters who received the glove pattern that I sent out)...

It's a crocheted flower. I love it! In fact I had to wear it right away...

Isn't it pretty? Thank you so much Agnes. It was an unexpected and wonderful surprise. I'm going to have to learn to make some knitted and crocheted flowers.

I'm sorry to say that I did not make any more progress on Rouge. I was too sick on the plane on the way up, too busy in PS and the lighting was terrible on the plane ride back. You do need to be able to see on this knit!

Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
