Yes, that's me in the pool!
Can you believe it?
My first dip into a pool in almost fifty years was the week I was staying at my friend Glenn's home in Cathedral City. Oh how nice!
The second week of our holiday in Palm Springs Pat and I were staying in a rental unit at the Ocotillo Lodge in Palm Springs. This complex of units, formerly a motel complex now individual condos, was formerly owned by the cowboy star Gene Autry.
Gene Autry is long gone now but his picture was still hanging over the toilet in our rental unit.
Pat and I checked out the huge pool and just couldn't resist. We both had to take a refreshing dip into the pool. I discovered that I have lost most of my ability to swim decently (if I ever had that ability anyway) but Pat swims like a dolphin. That guy can do just about anything! Our friend Glenn took the video.
More photos and videos will appear. I always say that after one of my holidays and neglect to post those photos and videos but not this time. I'm posting a lot of them!
I had a two week stay in Palm Springs. The first week was at Glenn's home in nearby Cathedral City. He has a lovely home but I didn't want to stay more than a week. You know the saying "Fish and guests start to stink after a week." I was starting to stink. Better get out before I stunk up Glenn's whole beautiful home.
Pat and I loved the unit we stayed in. It was decorated Mid-Century style. Pat wanted to buy it right away. Unfortunately he didn't have the cash (at least $500,000). He bought a couple of lottery tickets on the off chance that he would win the jackpot of millions of dollars. That didn't happen either but we did have a good swim that sunny, perfect temperature day one February 22, 2025 in downtown Palm Springs California.

Glenn's pool is beyond awesome.
Indeed! I felt like I was on a movie set.
