How long has it been since you went to Palm Springs?
Growing up in Southern California, I have been to this lovely city numerous times over the years. When I was a kid, my family went to Palm Springs for weekend getaways. As a young adult, I had a whole lot of fun in the city with friends. Then when I had kids of my own, I began bringing them to Palm Springs for fun family weekends. The town has changed a lot over the years. It’s exciting to see new restaurants, hotels and businesses opening up.
