Palm Springs
I flew into Ontario, California yesterday and was amazed at the guck that hangs over Los Angeles County. The cell phone picture doesn't do it justice, but it literally looks like you could suffocate breathing that air.
After our meeting in Claremont, my friend and I took a drive to Palm Springs because we had never been. I was envisioning a sort of Beverly Hills in the Desert - an upscale oasis with enticing restaurants and shops.
What a dissappointment. The town has clearly seen better days. It just look run down. Kind of sad.

Boy, California doesn't look as sunny and bright as it does in those star-studded commercials, trying to entice us there.

You just have to pick the right spots, Kelley. Santa Barbara, La Jolla are usuallly sunny and smog free.
