Person: “You should do a #artshow in #PalmSprings.”

Me: “Oh! Do you know of a #galley?”

Person: “No. Not really. But there are gays.”

😐 Thanks, Mary. I know.

Does a cursory look & gets a bad, hinky feeling. Maybe a pop-up is the way to go there?

The pre-fab Aluminaire House was moved to downtown Palm Springs in 2024. "Designed by then-budding architects Albert Frey and Lawrence Kocher (eventual pioneers of desert modernism) — made its debut at the 1931 Allied Arts and Building Products Exhibition at Grand Central Palace in New York City and, ironically, embodies eternally utopian principles for living."

Because it does not meet US codes for disability access, the interior is off limits to the public.

A three-story, aluminum-clad, boxy building stands against a background of the brown, rocky San Jacinto mountains and palm trees. In the foreground is a metal fence with a bright yellow sign attached that says "Aluminaire House." The sun is setting behind the mountains at dusk.

Spring in the southern California desert is windy season. For most of the year, vacuuming the pool is a once every 10 days or so thing. After nonstop wind off the desert for the last week, this is what I cleaned up this morning. (I sucked up at least this much last Sunday morning, showing how much blew in over the last four days.). Looks lovely now, though.

See comment for the results!

The water in our small backyard pool is clear, but the floor, walls, and steps are covered in brown sand and dust blown in by spring wind season. An aqua corrugated vacuum hose leads down from the left to plastic suction head attached to a telescoping aluminum pole. The vacuum head rests on the bottom next to the just-cleaned area and its left and the really dirty area on its right. There is a concrete deck around the pool and a low retaining wall rising out of the water at the back. The wall is tiled with small squares in varying shades of blue.
