The ViceroyI've been looking forward to posting about one of my favorite spots, Palm Springs, California. William and I have been going out every year, and I can never get enough of the dry air and gorgeous scenery. We always have a great time in the desert, and have made some good memories... We especially enjoy the Palm Springs Follies, Sherman's Deli, and a restaurant/bar called Blame it on Midnight, where we once ran into Tab Hunter having a late supper. Judy Bell at the Follies is a friend of Bill's, and we always say hello to her, and I got a kick out of Kay Ballard singing "This Is My Lunch" ! Riff Markowitz is a trip... he emcees the campy broadway style revue. We have also visited the Viceroy Hotel, re-designed by Kelly Wearstler, and El Paseo, where I recently discovered Phyllis Washington Antiques... Phyllis has great style, and enjoys bringing top design talent out to the desert for seminars. And of course we've checked out the Palm Desert branch of Kreiss Collection - which has great furniture and linens, supposedly Brad Pitt owns one of their more exotic beds... try the Citron restaurant at The Viceroy. The Star Tour is a lot of fun, and I enjoyed cruising by the fabled Annenberg estate, and having a delicious date shake with Bill... yum...We often stay in a quaint bed and breakfast, which was the former home of Howard Hughes. The desert is a very spiritual and tranquil place, and I look forward to our next trip out west, where I hope to visit the Getty Museum in Malibu. DF*****ps, don't forget to visit Stewart Galleries in downtown Palm Springs !
