My birthday is on Monday, and I'm treating myself today by hiring a very special guy I met last year, and have lusted after much longer than that.
 
Happy Birthday to me!

Hmmm... Reminds me of @Robster at a past PS Weekend pool event. As I remember he also had silver shoes - neither the shoes nor the suit stayed on long!❤?

I've been doing some 'advance reconnaissance' this week staying at INNdulge. The owners took the opportunity to make a few minor updates and the place looks fresh: new concrete around the pool, more cabanas, rooms and exterior painted. And as always, the staff is friendly. All that is missing is the breakfast conversations with y'all.

It's on my calendar now... Plenty of time to prepare so I can attend. ?

Great question - I just returned back to Ohio. Here's why I was comfortable heading to Palm Springs this past week.
 
1) I was comfortable flying. The airports and airlines have been vigorous in enforcing the mandatory mask protocols and I've not heard of any recent cases of transmission on a flight. (not sure I've heard of any, for that point)
2) I knew I could easily maintain social distance at INNdulge by simply returning to my room if things got uncomfortable for me. I reserved a cabana on days I expected to be poolside most of the day and that further assisted with the distancing.
3) Restaurants were still outside dining only when I departed for PSP and here in Ohio, I've been comfortable with outdoor dining when I've attended.
 
Things that reinforced the decision for me when I arrived at INNdulge:
 
4) INNdulge has changed its arrival process and has closed the lobby. I came through a side gate to a table set up just at the lobby's pool side entrance. The closing at the lobby also made it less likely that non-registered guests came in to meet guests prior to going out to dinner.
5) The staff wore masks the entire time.
6) While the breakfast menu was consistent with my previous visits, it was no longer self-serve (aside from the coffee.) You made your request and the staff member provided it to you while masked and gloved as was the guest. The social hour was also no longer self service, with the proprietor Sandy pouring beverages.
7) Housekeeping changed. The staff no longer enters the rooms while guests have them. Every other day, we were provided a bag of fresh towels and placed used towels in a bag outside our door. We also set trash bags out for pick up. Within minutes of a guest checking out of a room, I saw the staff go in with a disinfectant steamer (not sure exactly it was) and then an hour or so later when in to clean the room.
8) Tables have been spread apart (no longer two tables abutted thus allowing four guests to sit together for breakfast) and somewhat relocated further apart.

Wayne (@Socalguy) and I will absolutely be there, as always!
 
We're actually moving to Palm Springs at the end of this month (yay!!) but will probably rent a room at Canyon Club for that weekend.
 
We can't wait to see you all again. I really wish we had been able to get together this year! Hopefully, many things will be better next year.

It's on my calendar now... Hopefully this time around I will get to meet other forum members.

I concur! ? Great body too. ?

I haven't watched any of this season yet except for the I Love Lucy episode, which I absolutely loved. Sheer perfection from start to finish.

We were supposed to arrive two days ago for the forum weekend. Haven't been to PS in three months, going through major withdrawal!

I would be sitting at the pool at Canyon Club right now oogling the men and catching rays. I would probably be on my way to breakfast at Rick's with Vin Marco and some of the members here. Miss those pancakes and of course the hot sausage.

Happy Birthday, you sweet, sexy man!

We can do whatever the hell you want.
 
I can't wait to see you next year and give you a big hug and kiss, when social distancing is a thing of the past.
