Beautiful Desert

Drove around today as it is Ken's birthday and he wanted to go check out the vendors at the FMCA Rally in Indio.  After spending a few hours there we headed to Olive Garden for a late lunch...  Enough left for dinner too ! ! !  On the way and out and about we captured these great shots of the surrounding mountains.  It is really beautiful in a deserty (is that a word) way ! !   There has been a lot of flooding around here, especially up against the mountains.  We saw, for the first time, sand piled about two feet high by the "snow" plows. Very interesting...

Can hardly separate the clouds from the snow...
