  A Sunset In The Desert     Being out of the direct sunlight makes for a cooler experience while outside. As the sun sets the winds have begun to picked up which does wonders for the hot desert air. All in all, the sunset brings much good, including a chance to snap a few shots.

    I had the chance to get out for a walk this morning, we chose to walk along the golf course at Shadow Ridge. It is a beautiful course in Palm Desert, very green in this desert setting.   I got a shot of the greenery, the water, and the facilities here on the course. It sure makes walking easier when you have views like this.

  A Room With a View? Of Course!     Golf Course that is!   If you have ever been to the Palm Desert, Palm Springs area of Riverside County, you know how many golf course there are to choose from here. I wouldn't know how to even begin to count how many there are but they are everywhere!   Pictured here is the Shadow Ridge Golf Course. I think it's the 16th hole.

  Signs of Life in the Desert     Okay, it's not so bad here in Palm Desert, only 102 this afternoon. Looks like a slow introduction to the warmer days ahead. After checking into the beautiful room on the Shadow Ridge Golf Course we saw signs of life outside. This little bunny seems comfortable going about his business.

    Do You Know That Is Hot In Palm Desert This Time Of Year?     When telling friends and family of are trip to Palm Desert today I’m asked. “Do you know that it’s hot there this time of year?” Yes, I’m well aware of that. In fact we were there the same week four years ago and it was hot. We had a blast and wanted to come back again. Today it that day. Looking forward to a great week in the desert.

  Thought We'd Get Away To A Place Even Hotter Than Home     The temperatures have been pretty warm here in Placerville the last few weeks but my wife and I will be getting away to a place that is even hotter. We have been to Palm Desert before and enjoyed our stay there on the golf course. We will be heading down tomorrow for some hot summer days.   We like it HOT!

Palm Desert CA Short Sale Palm Desert, California real estate has seen some drastic swings in prices, conditions and inventory. First, when the Palm Desert housing crashed in 2007, no one could sell a house. Anyone trying to only chased Palm Desert home buyers with dropping prices. Then came all the Palm Desert CA foreclosures. This attracted many cash buyers and investors. As banks realized that flooding the Palm Desert real estate market with foreclosures drove prices down even further, they began holding on to their Palm Desert foreclosed homes. This brought a new wave to the Palm Desert real estate market: Palm Desert CA Short Sales! The Palm Desert CA Short Sale Yes, Palm Desert California has seen the rise and fall of the short sale, and this type of transaction helped many distre...
