I live in the mountains above Palm Springs and the lower desert. The pictures were take in Anza Borrego State park, about 50 square miles of desert. There is a lot to see in California and Arizona, you'd have fun.

i know - i do want to do it. i have been to california before, but never south of LA. i spent a couple of weeks one xmas in northern california on the coast in a redwood forest near a little town called trinidad. i liked it a LOT. however, i've not been at any other time of year, so only know a cool-ish LA, blustery san francisco, and very very cold northern california.

i also visited new york a couple of times, though not for very long.

in the quite random survey i have done i have found people generally friendly, but don't have a great deal of interest in cities - the best bits were food and nature.
