Desert Vibes: Indio and Palm Springs

I love Indio as it is an easy two hour getaway from where we are down Interstate 10, and the World Mark Indio is a very nice resort. The kids love relaxing the lazy river or by the pool. There are also a myriad of places to explore in the vicinity of Indio and Palm Springs.

School Beautiful: Desert Landscapes

As part of a school beautification project through the Cub Scouts, we landscaped a previously bare area of the school utilizing drought-tolerant and native plants, as well as some special touches. The project also aimed to instill in Scouts principles of service, sustainability, conservation, and teamwork.
