a desert adventure

Palm Springs is a desert city in Riverside County, California, approximately 111 miles (177 km) east of Los Angeles.

L

uxury golf courses, hot springs and palm trees draw countless tourists and seasonal residents to the heavenly desert town of Palm Springs. With 350 sunny days per year, according to Palm Springs’ Chamber of Commerce, it’s no surprise that both early and modern pioneers have flocked to this desert community.

Golf, swimming, tennis, horseback riding and hiking in the nearby desert and mountain areas are major forms of recreation in Palm Springs. It is one of nine adjacent cities that make up the Coachella Valley At least one Spanish explorer referred to the area as La Palma de la Mano de Dios or “The Palm of God’s hand.” The current name for the area is “Palm Springs” which came into common usage in the mid-1860s when the land was first surveyed by U.S. Government surveyors who noted that a local mineral spring was located at the base of “two bunches of palms”.

The once-modest city of Palm Springs skyrocketed after World War II. Several Hollywood stars began to build houses in the area, including Kirk Douglas and Frank Sinatra. The beloved Bob Hope was appointed Honorary Mayor. In addition, Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Ford all visited this flourishing town.

Angelinos have been flocking to this desert oasis for over 100 years. From October to May each year, the desert retreat provides a place to unwind, for a long weekend or a holiday excursion. The city of Palm Springs is the perfect escape. It’s really that simple.

ESCAPE

p

alm Springs is noted for its mid-century modern architecture, a tradition that grew out of the aesthetics of the German Bauhaus and is reflected in the work of Albert Frey (who designed the Palm Springs city hall, tram station, Movie Colony Hotel and airport), Donald Wexler, Richard Neutra, E. Stewart Williams, and others.

A home developer, Alexander Homes, popularized this post-and-beam architectural style in the Coachella Valley. Alexander houses and similar homes feature low-pitched roofs, wide eaves, open-beamed ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows.

The world’s largest rotating tramcars can be found at the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. These cars ascend two-and-a-half miles up a steep incline to reveal views of the entire Coachella Valley. The ascent from the desert floor to an altitude in excess of 8,500 feet (2,600m) is accompanied by a drop in temperature of 30 degrees or more, giving riders a cool respite from the heat. A wilderness area can be explored at the top of the tram and there is a restaurant with notable views.

THE RIGHT UNDERWEAR Choosing underwear that is right for you is a very personal choice. What your best friend thinks looks good, you may despise with a passion. We believe there are three things that are fundamental to great underwear… FIT… FABRIC… and FASHION. It’s that simple. The waist band is like a piece of art.

Situated on your body, it’s the first thing people look at when you disrobe at the gym or for your partner’s pleasure. Look and feel your best and at the same time.
