Feb 11/17 Weather suppose to be 74 and cloudy, but it cleared and was quite warm 79, night 58.
Palm Springs is known for being a playground for the rich and famous.
It's been decades since Frank Sinatra and
other celebrities turned Palm Springs, California into their playground,
to escape the hustle and bustle of Hollywood.

| Desert Memorial Park - every Wednesday they remove all flowers and memorabilia left |
In Cathedral City which is near Palm Springs you will find a couple of notable interments in the Desert Memorial Park. What is remarkable is how simple and plain the grounds are. We did find "ol blue eyes" and half of the duet of Sonny and Cher. Sonny Bono was more than a singer/songwriter he was also a politician being the 14th mayor of Palm Springs and a Congressman for California.

| Frank Sinatra - The Best is Yet to Come |
While we were at Frank's grave site there were three teenagers also paying their respects. We asked them if they knew where Sonny Bono was buried they had no clue who he was..... we said "you know Sonny and Cher". "Oh right, is that his name?".
