Just a little silliness during the drive from Ontario (California) to Palm Springs :)

Pretty clouds (David would know their name) spotted during our Ontario-to-Palm Springs drive earlier today...

David and I at the #BNPParibasOpen2016 last night. That's #SerenaWilliams between us, on court. We were closer than this photo makes it look :) Also, note that I'm wearing a hoodie (and a jacket). It was cooooold! Thankfully, tomorrow night should be warm

#SerenaWilliams serves to a German girl who never really had a chance during a second-round match at #BNPParibasOpen2016...

You know you're staying at a fun joint when you find an ashtray like this sitting at one of the poolside tables :) #PalmSprings #CoralSandsInn #RubyMontana
bochalla:
Our room at #RubyMontana's #CoralSandsInn has a Puss in Boots lamp. Jealous?
bochalla:
You *know* you've always wanted a crocheted wine cozy made in the form of a brilliantly pink poodle...

Miss Billie Holiday checks out the entrance to our room (aka the "Pink Poodle" suite) at #RubyMontana' #CoralSandsInn.

Billie Holiday shocks the world by letting a human touch her...

David takes in some rays -- as much as is possible while wearing a jacket -- on the grounds of #RubyMontana's #CoralSandsInn in #PalmSprings

Just another beautifully sunny day in #PalmSprings ππβοΈ

The #CoralSandsInn in #PalmSprings offers "cheesy sleezy souvenirs" at its "tourists trap shop-o-rama" ππ
bochalla:
I love all of #RubyMontana's pups, but little Lola here is my absolute favorite :3

Another example of the "local color" on the grounds of #PalmSprings' #CoralSandsInn πππ΄

The "no lying" part I can understand, but the "no sitting" part? Not entirely... #PalmSprings
bochalla:
The names of these palm trees, which sit in the middle of #CoralSandsInn's courtyard: David and Bryan (or maybe Brian). No joke. They're not named after me and my David, though π€

Saw this pretty desert plant while eating dinner (on the way to #IndianWells) tonight and had to snap a photo of it... #nofilter #justkidding #definitelyusedafilter

Zombie #Nadal (not really) mural that can be seen while making your way to the "lower bowl" seats in #BNPParibasOpen2016's main stadium.
bochalla:
Current mood. OK, not really; I just like this tchotchke that resides in our room here at #PalmSprings' #CoralSandsInn πΆπβ€οΈ
bochalla:
Another of the adorable pups that tend to roam the grounds of the #CoralSandsInn. This one's name: Judy--as in Garland ;) Viva #PalmSprings!
bochalla:
Photographic proof that #RubyMontana's #CoralSandsInn is pretty at night, too :)
bochalla:
Our last night at the #BNPParibasOpen2016 π© Oh, well, it's been a blast, as always. Plus, now we get to focus on relaxing. OK, so we'll play some (more) tennis in the next few days, too π
bochalla:
I just love these shaggy #PalmSprings palm trees ππ΄π

The last two times we came to #RubyMontana's #CoralSandsInn, Billie here kept her distance and barked at us. This time, she loves us and wants to us to pet her, play ball with her--everything. Here's hoping she feels the same way when we return to #PalmSp
