Tried to make it up to visit Mount Palomar observatory yesterday at 5500 feet. Got about 3 miles from it and the road was closed for bad weather, so never got to even see the building. We were in cloud and there was hoar frost on the trees, but it didn't seem that bad to me. Oh well, the Coachella valley is quite impressive as you come back down from the hills to the south, and we got a consolation prize by visiting the Tamale festival at Indio which is supposed to be one of the top ten native food festivals in the US. Never seen tamales on the menu at your local Mexican? You aren't missing much: think dumpling without the magic ingredient - suet....
Also came over all proper touristy and went to the festival of lights parade at palm springs - very festive, and as a nice change they have never heard of Slade or Wizzard.
