Borrego Springs ... The Palms at Indian Head

 

We did a quick road trip to 

the Borrego Springs Desert

We went for a night stay at one of our favorite historic motels

The Palms at Indian Head.

 "Built in 1947

the 20 acre resort was a favorite getaway for the Hollywood stars.

Past guests included clark Gable, Bing Crosby, James Arness and Marilyn Monroe.

the property included a landing strip

an oversized Olympic pool

and lounge."

The Palms at Indian Head 

just opened a one of a kind cocktail lounge 

beneath the hotel's iconic pool.

Entering downstairs,  through the hand carved mermaid  door by Glenn Weischedel

makes you feel like your'e making entry into a secluded world

The Dive Bar 

is a hidden waterfront in the middle of the desert.

Jeff and I have stayed in

 Borrego Springs 

many times over the years.

The Palms at Indian Palms is by far our favorite.

To be transparent it's definitely not a fancy, perfectly manicured and maintained property

that I am usually drawn to love.

But what it lacks in finishing and maintenance 

it far makes up with 

it's vast, unbroken skyline

historic charm and secluded feel

Another attribute it has going is what I consider 

a value in pricing.

Writing this post has me yearning to go back to

Borrego Springs 

and 

The Palms at Indian Head

Hello Monday ... Hello Gratitude

 I do a 

Gratitude List

everyday.

I have been doing for longer than I can even remmber.

Today I thought I'd add 

some of my favorite pictures

that fill my heart with

Summer Gratitude.

For me writing

Gratitude Lists

has been life changing

in that I notice when things are good.

Even on hard days

there are always reasons  to be 

Grateful. 

I believe we get more of 

what we think of most.

I also believe it doesn't matter what we have

as much as It matters

how we truly appreciate what we have.

Comparison will always be the thief  of joy.

I am at an age

where I can

feel the sacred in the ordinary.

Small moments

are my big moments.

That a regular Tuesday

can be as memorable and meaningful.

That time together

 can be

 the greatest of riches.

That it is such

 a gift to be able 

to watch our children grow

no matter their  age.

That sometimes

 the summer light

can stop me

in my tracks 

with 

it's beauty.

I believe

 the amount of beauty 

you find in your life

has a lot to do with

how much you seek it out

and

create it.

I believe a lot of life is about

consistently showing up

and 

noticing all the 

Glimmers in Your Life.

Here are a few more of mine.

This here is one of my favorite views this summer.

While I was washing the dishes in the kitchen

this sweet girl

out. in our backyard

completely immersed in her 

watercolor painting.

A simple

sacred moment

to me.

As always my friends

I wish you love and joy

as you style your life
