Living in the desert has its advantages for much of the year. Beautiful sunny days when most of the country is cold and wet give those of us who dwell amongst the cacti and palm trees a little bit of an attitude. “Aren’t we lucky?” we think as we ride our golf carts around in the middle of February.
