An oppurtunity came up to escape the daily grind in Toronto and head to Palm Springs, California, (thanks T,D and J!) and we jumped at it. We're back at a fave place The Horizon Hotel for a couple of days, and well, we're loving it. The hotel was designed back in 1952 by architect William F Cody and was quite the spot for Hollywood starlets in it's day - it's all low-slung black and white buildings surrounding an anguler pool - V. cool indeed, and if you're ever out this way we highly recommend it.
Looking around I'm very inspired, so I'm trying to find ways to make our very dumpy back yard (look here) have the same feel. Hmmm, we probably can't do palm trees and cacti, a pool would blow the budget, and our view is of the back of a victorian semi, not the mountains...
