Photos from Palm Springs and Indian Wells, Summer 2020

Summer began and closely thereafter the LNU Lightening Complex (fire) ignited around Napa, California. The smoke permeated nearby Sacramento causing AQI’s to reach upwards of 500+. It would burn from August to October 2, 2020 and become the fourth largest wildfire in the recorded history of California.

Choked by the smoke, we packed the dogs and hit the road for bluer skies; destination, Palm Springs. Technically, Indian Wells, but we spent a lot of time throughout the beautiful Coachella Valley; seven weeks to be exact.

I was able to continue servicing my clients and even picked up some new projects while I was there. Virtually all of my clients use Zoom, Google Meet and GoTo Meeeting for communications which made being hundreds of miles away, a non-issue.

This gallery represents some of my favorite photos from this trip. I forgot to pack my Nikon so I made do with my trusty iPhone. Still, I think they came out just fine for displaying on the web. 

One of the new projects I began in Indian Wells was a virtual tour for a real estate agent. More on that later. It definitely got me thinking about expanding my services to include virtual tours.
