La Quinta Organic Market

La Quinta Old Town on Calle Tampico hosts a small but nice Farmers Market on Sundays from 8:00-noon.
Bring your dog, your kids and friends to enjoy a cup of coffee and listen to the music of the day.  Today there were two musicians one playing Calyspo type music and the was Joe Baldino who plays Latin inspired Jazz.  Organic veggies including all kinds of greens, root vegetables a large selection of mushrooms, tomatoes and berries were beautifully displayed.  Also available were flats of wheat grass, honey, nuts, bakery items, and flowers at $5.00 a bunch.

Hiking in and around Palm Springs

                                                                    Hiking in the Coachella Valley



There are many trails for hiking throughout the Coachella Valley.   I love Philip Ferranti’s book 140 Great Hikes in and Near Palm Springs, you can find it in any book store in the desert or on line. These are also some good websites for hiking.  The photos are from one of the trails located within the Living Desert.   The book is pictured, but sorry clicking on it won't get you inside, you will have to try Amazon.com
