Palm Springs exteriors

When I travel, I always have to check out the local architecture, design and food. Palm Springs is a gold mine for all three! It is the Beverly Hills of the desert, in my opinion, its much better because you aren't in LA(ok "westside", as not to offend).
The large and mostly gated estates have unique architecture, usually mid-century or Early California, sprawling flat lots and lush landscaping. In stark contrast to what you would except in the middle of the desert, Palm Springs is in full bloom this time of year, the weather is perfect and the homes are immaculate.
