EASTER Celebration - Shields Date Garden

If you're looking for the perfect place to wander a beautiful garden while you reflect on your blessings during Easter, then the Shields Date Garden is the perfect place to stroll down gorgeous garden paths while viewing statues meant to celebrate the life of Christ. It's not a difficult hike, and there are places where you can sit and reflect.

Plus, there is a wonderful cafe where you can grab something to eat and drink. And there's even a gift shop, so you can bring home some delicious dates with you.

INDIAN WELLS - PARABAS OPEN - We finally went to watch the pros (Gauff, Pegula, Fritz and more) play

Our first Tennis Match to watch was the singles match between USA's Coco Gauff v. French's Lucia Bronzetti. It was a nail-biter with Coco down at one point 2-5. But she rallied to win in the 3rd set tie-break and she looked stunning in her yellow tennis outfit while doing it too.

We also watched the women's doubles match with Gauff teaming up with Jessica Pegula (the announcer said ...Pa-----GOOLAh).

We also watched a men's singles match with USA's Taylor Fritz (rated number 5 in the world) where he was spectacular playing against Sebastian Baez of Argentina. Fritz did some fancy drop shots that made the game more exciting, as he handily won the match.

We even met some D3 Tennis players from Colorado, who were here taking in the games and some sun. It was fun chatting with them over lunch.

We even managed to squeeze in a men's doubles match, which was so fast-paced the ball was a blur.

After a full day in the sun having loads of fun, I sat out by the pool and worked on my knitting to come down from the tennis-high so I could go to sleep.

Aerial Tram Ride over Mt. San Jacinto in California

AERIAL TRAM RIDE THAT ROTATES

HIGH ABOVE MT. SAN JACINTO

IN CALIFORNIA

Have you ever dreamt of being a bird and flying high above the clouds? Well, this is your opportunity, if you ever visit Palm Springs check out the Aerial Tramway.

Lars and I rode the rotating tramcar high up the mountain top. There is a restaurant where you can grab a drink or a bite of food. It was a beautiful day and a wonderful way to spend a day with friends.

At the top, you can grab a map, which lists tons of information. Then you can hike around or simply view the sites from the viewpoint above the main floor of the Visitor Center.

There will be an Easter Ride-n-Dine day. Check out the website at www.pstramway.com. Or, if you have questions, call 888-515-Tram. But tickets are $41.00 for adults and $27.50 for kids.

I've even posted a short video on my YouTube Channel, so if you're interested, check it out. https://youtube.com/shorts/-B0O6R6-LV4?feature=shared
