It was a perfect night for baseball. Warm, with a breeze coming off the mountains, and plenty of misters throughout the stadium. The Palm Springs Power were playing the Arizona Diamond Jacks. We were right behind home plate. The Power played well--in fact, when we left at the sixth inning (I know, we should have stayed for the whole game) the Power were ahead 20 to 3. We figured there wasn't much chance they were going to blow it at that point.
Today we looked at more homes, this time in Desert Hot Springs, which is just a few miles outside of Palm Springs. It's a quicky growing town, and prices there are much cheaper than in Palm Springs, Palm Desert or even Cathedral City. It's really amazing what less than $300K can buy: 2-3 bedrooms, dining room, huge kitchen, large back yard, 2-car garage, and lots of amenities. We saw some beautiful homes with as much as 1600-1800 square feet. Of course, now is the time to buy in some of these places but we can't do it financially at the moment. But we'll at least have a lot of information when the time comes. So far it seems that Sun City offers the best deal for the money. It's fun going through the model homes, but after a while we get confused about where we saw which home!
Boston connection #4: the woman who showed us a couple of homes in Desert Hot Springs has a sister who lives in Westfield MA.
