    Palm Desert is surrounded by Palm Springs, La Quinta, etc. If you enjoy heat (110') during Sept and sometime Oct., desert scenery, sand, cactus and the color tan than you would like it. The area is really tourist oriented so check on local happenings so that you can find some fun local things to do. Palm Springs has a large gay population which makes people watching fun....nothing wrong with being gay just the glitzy areas of Palm Springs brings out the bling bling in gays and rich alike. It is about 1 1/2 hours drive from LA or Orange County.

    I live in Orange County so the desert areas are not my favorite but it is definitely different from the Midwest!!

    Have fun.
