January is such a laid-back month here in Sun City Palm Desert (SCPD). After November and December; months filled with partys, dances, dinners and visits to and from family and friends; January becomes the month of restoration of mind and body, and reconnecting with our extended family here in SCPD. That means getting back into our areas of interest, whether it be meeting up at the fitness center, riding short or long distances with the biking club, hiking trails with the hiking club, striking that little white dimpled ball while playing a game of golf with one of our golf clubs (mens, ladies, couples, niners, putting), striking that fuzzy ball on the court with one of our tennis club friends, bowling, or any of the other many activities here in SCPD. Those who prefer playing cards are getting together for a game of Bridge (Social or Duplicate), Pan, Pinochle, Gin Rummy, Cribbage, Hearts, or tile games such as Rummy Q and Mah Jongg. Other indoor activities and clubs that will get your creative juices running are ceramics, art (pastels or oils), billiards, needlecrafts, jewelry making, quilters, camera, astronomy, car, computer, hand made crafts, wood crafts, dancing, model railroaders, music buffs, performing arts, and the writers circle. Then there are the clubs for those that prefer a little something different, i.e. financial, food and wine connoisseurs, discussion groups, garden, genealogy, travel, line dancing, pet lovers, solos, veterans, yacht and wine tasters clubs. And if you don't see something here that 'floats your boat', then start a club yourself. I was instrumental in starting the jewelry club because I always had an interest in beading. Sun City Palm Desert is a place for you to come and experience all the best in life. And, similar to a scout camp, you can do it all, or nothing at all.
Come to SCPD (an active adult golf and tennis community) for a visit and you will stay for a lifetime. That is what we did 9 years ago. My husband and I moved here from Orange County, California, where I had been in the real estate business since 1972. This is truly like living in paradise. Check out the videos on my website to get a taste of what it would be like living here in the beautiful Coachella Valley. We are in the heart of the Valley along with the cities of Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, La Quinta. The Valley is known as the golf capital of the world with over 120 golf courses. Of course there is plenty of upscale shopping (El Paseo) and the some of the best restaurants in Southern California.
