I currently live in Palm Springs California. I am always amazed by the Palm Trees, the city is located above underground springs and the Palms flourish here. Palm Springs is a vacation destination for many. It is hot in the summer (some days reaching over 120 degrees) but still attracts many people in the heat of the summer. Palm Springs has been and still a getaway location for movie stars from Los Angeles (2hour drive). Palm Springs is clean and just beautiful with fantastic weather.
