Lappert’s Super Premium Ice Cream – Palm Springs
I remember my first visit to Lappert’s in Lahaina. It was hot and we tried to cool off sheltering under the shade of the old banyon tree. It helped. I noticed there was a Lappert’s Ice cream shop nearby. The cold ice cream brough a smile to everyone’s face.

John’s Restaurant
John’s Restaurant has a 1960’s feel to it like I saw depicted in American Grafitti. I loved the early Palm Springs vibe with Palm trees in front. I found out John’s opened in 1985.

Joshua Tree National Park
I have loved trees since I was a kid. I admired how Palm trees reach up towards the sky. They are an iconic part of the southern California landscape. I admired bonsai trees small enough to fit in a window sill and whose beauty are from nature and also guided by the hand of man. I admired Joshua trees for their wild and spiky appearance. I knew there was a National Park named after them and wanted to visit. We stayed in the Yucca Valley to visit Pioneertown and Joshua Tree National Park. There are trails to hike and lots of Joshua Trees.

Pioneertown, CA
Pioneertown. The wind blows sand in the air like when a gunslinger rides into town. This is the place I dreamed of as a child with my cap shooter holstered and in search of bad men to battle. Sand crunches beneath my feet as I explore town. There are all the shops you expect to find in an old western town. The coffin maker would be especially busy…
