Expert Advice

  • Bluegrass in Blythe - Blythe, California, is here because of the farms that surround it. And the farms are here because of the Colorado River that meanders by and irrigates this fertile valley called the Palo Verde. The river draws tourists to town, and the warm winters draw snowbirds. Others just stumble onto Blythe while traveling over Interstate 10, which connects Phoenix, Houston and Jacksonville with Los Angeles.

  • John Steinbeck’s Vision of America - John Steinbeck, the Nobel Prize-winning author of The Grapes of Wrath, set off in 1960 to drive across the United States in a custom-built truck camper, accompanied by Charley, his standard French poodle.
