My Palm Springs Day Trip Peter Cetera @Spotlight 29

Palm Springs California!

Hello CA., I’ve missed you! I was on CA. soil for just a day and a half. My husband and I went to see Peter Cetera @ Spotlight 29 in Coachella. We had purchased the tickets about three weeks ago but suddenly realized we could find no local lodging! Busy weekend there! We found a listing in Airbnb. We stayed at a mans home in Cathedral City. It was a good location and thankfully not far from the Spotlight 29 Casino in Coachella. It was also pretty close to downtown Palm Springs as well. The host was a very nice older gentleman. His home and the room were adequate. He was very hospitable. It worked out well. We were grateful for the accommodation!

It had rained like crazy on our drive to California. They had a crazy wicked storm the night before. Thankfully we missed the worst of it. I thought the fog around the mountain was an awesome sight. We had dinner in downtown Palm Springs. It was our hosts referral. Italian place. We weren’t impressed with our meal so I won’t bother naming it. We ate outside on the patio just at sunset.

I enjoyed browsing in the shops up and down the street. I found a few Palm Springs t-shirts for the girls. I collect coffee mugs from the places I visit and I found one to take home.

The concert was good. Peter Cetera was adorable. I love that he talked a lot about his career and some poignant moments. He was so personable. Such a talented and accomplished songwriter! I have only a video on my Facebook page of the concert.Here is the link, https://www.facebook.com/tyna.phipps/posts/10212526088333559. We had pretty good seats. I could see Peter clearly. It’s fun to sing along when he’s right in front of you. He is touring with a great band as well. Go see him! Spotlight 29 is a great venue! Go have fun there!

After the concert, we ended up at a dance club. Haven’t danced in a nightclub for years! Everyone there was about our age. So fun! On the way out, I found a really fun slot machine. Had a bunch of fun playing this slot. I ended up losing the $20.00 I threw in it. Took an hour and a half to lose it though. Fun!

Before we left town, we had brunch in downtown Palm Springs… we walked around until about 2:30 pm and then started our trek home.

We had already eaten when we found this place…darn. The pastries were so beautiful and such a variety. I had to get some pics! We didn’t buy anything as we had no way of getting them home… next time! What an amazing assortment!
