Palm Springs Memorial Day Getaway

It felt great to run 6 miles along the coast. It felt even better knowing that we were headed to Palm Springs. A 2hr drive from San Diego, Palm Springs has become one of our favorite weekend retreats. Its rocky mountain backdrops and desert landscape make us feel like we're worlds away. I surprised Eddie with reservations at the La Quinta Waldorf Astoria Resort with a hideaway casita, known for its spacious back patio. We ate some great meals including a surprise find - Richie's Diner, a 50s style diner that Eddie loved of course. We had ribs and gigantic onion rings. We'll be back for sure! On a bummer note, I felt a tinge of my calf injury return on the run.
