In the spirit of the new decade upon us I pulled out this photo of the Vista Dunes site as it existed in the mid 1900's. Known as Happy Dunes Trailer Park, it was the first establishment in La Quinta, California. You can just feel that fresh desert air with the snow-capped mountains in the distance and the open space around the site. The road (now Miles Avenue) leads both newcomer and wary traveler the same, into the community. An open invitation to establish a life in any way you choose. The subsistence of this site has now transpired as much an inspiration and opportunity for a new life as it was in this first photo.
