La Quinta~


La Quinta Resort was built-in 1926.

It is located in the town of La Quinta, which is in the northwestern portion of The Sonoran Desert, in Southern California’s Coachella Valley.

The resort is adobe, made of over 100,000 handmade adobe bricks. The roofing contains over 60,000 handmade terracotta tiles.

Hand painted Talavera tiles are everywhere.

It is especially beautiful when the cactus are blooming!

  1. Cindy, I think you have been kicked out of my reader, as you mentioned happens to someone above. I haven’t seen a post from you for a long time and didn’t know I was missing them! Just came across you again as a reblog on someone else’s site. I changed my settings to notify me every time you post, as I love your photos and hearing about the holler and your travels!

    1. Yes, this happens to me all the time. People I follow do not show up in my reader. It is quite frustrating because I use the reader to keep up with blogs and lose touch just as you mention. Thank you for trying and hope it works. I will check to make sure I am still following you too!
