- On my walk, this morning, around Palm Springs, I answer a few questions asked by subscribers and viewers.
The first question is which Palm Springs neighborhoods are the most GAY/LGBTQ+ retirement-friendly? I'm not an expert, but I share my personal opinions.

It’s like Heaven on Earth there! Very nice video as always. Going to be 75 degrees here today. Sitting in my deck with my tea watching! Great week to you! 🍵😊👍🌞🌴💛
Thanks Linda and the same to you! 😎👍
Nobody explains Palm Springs like you Steve! You’re the best!💞💞
Thanks Susan, that’s so nice of you to say! 😄👍
I agree! My husband even said that! ❤️✌🏼 I got him into watching now. And, the graveyard channel too! 😆❤️
Thank you Steve for doing a longer video. I subscribed to your channel a few years ago and enjoy watching your videos and listening to you talk. You have a nice voice and you are always so nice and respectful. Thank you for doing what you do I really appreciate you. Have a nice day and please tell Jim I said hello. He also seems like a really nice guy. 💕☺
Thank you Steve for all you do. Stay safe out there and God bless ❤❤❤
Thanks Monika and you too! 😎👍
Your microphone is working great, very clear. Thanks for the tour.
Thanks for the feedback John. 😄👍
Steve the longer the videos the better. I always feel relaxed after one of your videos just talking about all different things and watching the beautiful scenery as we’re doing it and even though I’m in my sixties I have a disabled daughter, so I’ve made a rule that on the weekends I don’t want to be on a time limit. The weekends are for relaxing.
Thanks for the feedback Lee and that sounds smart! 😎👍
Steve, as always, an excellent video!!! I've retired myself, and I agree with you; the best thing about retirement is not having to make plans. I also agree that you do have to be careful about meeting people, may it be TH-cam or any other social media, this is a dangerous world and sometimes people may not have the best intentions.
Thanks L and yes, sad but true. 🙃
The audio brings the beautiful bird songs thru so nice and clear. I close my eyes and I’m there! Thanks always Steve!
I was noticing that too William. The birds were loving being out and about as much as I was that day! 😎👍
Love our early morning strolls Steve 👌🏼
Always happy to hear that RB! 😎👍
It says in the description that it's your birthday, so happy birthday to you, Steve.
I really love your wonderful videos every time I come across them.🎉😊🏳️🌈
Hi Kelly, where does it say it’s my birthday? It’s not my birthday. Thanks though anyway! 😄👍
Oh, do you mean my channel’s birthday? I didn’t even think of that. Thanks lol! 🎂😄👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteve LOL in the description of this video after you tap onto the word more scroll down it will say celebrate Steve's birthday.🤣
@steveinpalmspringsca I didn't see that, unfortunately. lol, oopsy.🤣
@steveinpalmspringsca No problem, lol.🤣
Wow, that was a great video! You shared so much information and a lot of scenery, all of which I love! It's so cute when you share a unique door or gate come etc because it gives that ship personal perspective. As I have said before, it's like I'm on a walk with my friend and just sharing the walk! Your videos are always uplifting and inspirational. Even when the subject matter might be pretty heavy, you always give it an uplifting perspective. I think you share a lot of your personal information without oversharing. Sunset for your around with my allergies I have often wondered if your allergies are better or worse with living in the desert? Love to both you and Jim and have a great day! Thanks for another informative and fun video!
Thanks Connie, so glad that you enjoy the videos. It’s funny how some people move to the desert and their allergies get better and others move here and they get worse. Mine have always been bad, but they are much worse here in Palm Springs. We have a lot of ragweed and I think the wind tends to stir it up a lot. 😩 I still wouldn’t wanna live anywhere else though lol! 😎👍
Steve I love your Videos and I love tours you take us on! I get to escape to a Wonderful Sunny scenic tour for an hour or so. Please keep the camera going? 👍🌺🌻🌺
Thanks Sho. Glad you like them! 😎👍
Lovely Tour steve love it and thanks again 👍
Thanks Tom, glad you enjoyed it! 😎👍
Outstanding tour Steve we loved it ❤❤
Thanks Alex! 😎👍
I really appreciate this. I think you have a market for people wanting to move to the area, like my wife and I, but not knowing which areas are decent / LGBTQ friendly /somewhat affordable besides PS. We are looking at Sun City, so we know what we're getting, but we also think, maybe we don't want to pay all those HOA fees...lol I did notice that house prices in Indio are a little better, but it's out there. We came down last weekend to look at 55 plus communities. Palm Desert Greens manufactured homes community is ideally located, and reasonable, but they do have an HOA pf $400 a month. Sun City in Indio had better prices, but you said it's more windy, and it's much further from PS we noticed. Not too bad though. Maybe 10 miles? Thank you for the information! I look forward ro moving down that way soon. Im up for walking anytime!
Hi LA, it’s definitely not an easy decision buying here. Or probably buying anywhere. There are always so many different factors to take into consideration. I guess it always depends on which is the most important. I do love Sun City, but like you say, both Son cities are at least a half hour away from the city of Palm Springs. During the winter season there’s a lot more traffic so it could even take longer. The Indio/La Quinta area can be really nice though. It’s a lot more like orange county there that here in Palm Springs. Good luck with your search and I hope you eventually find the perfect place! 😎👍
Always great videos! I was born and raised in Palm Springs ( then later annexed to Cat City). My dad was a firefighter/engineer for the Palm Springs fire department for 25 years. In fact, he’s moving back as we speak. ❤️🤣✌🏼 As an ally, with family in the LGBT+ community, this was a no-brainer to us. We knew this is where we’re going to retire. All of our friends and family will be welcome And a lot safer than where we’re living at now, in Tennessee. As a former resident and a longtime visitor, I would recommend anybody that wants to move there to visit in the winter and also in the height of summer. Just so you see exactly how the weather is. ❤️. It can get very hot, but the city and the area is just so beautiful. To me, it’s worth the heat.
Steve, thanks again for another great video! Have a great day! ✌🏼✨
Hi Carla, thank you for sharing that with us. Very good advice. Glad you are eventually moving back. 😎👍
I also wanted to mention, because I didn’t, I’d love the combination of long and short videos. If I don’t have the time to watch long videos, I save them for later. But, they will be watched!🤣😂🤣. Sorry if I’m too chatty. I get excited when it comes to Palm Springs!🤣❤️✌🏼✨
I would Definitely Love Longer Videos!!! You do an Amazing job Steve!
Awesome! Thank you for the feedback Donna! 😄👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteve Thank You for ALL of your Hard work bringing Your Life, Your Family and Your Knowledge to All of Us!
Steve I would watch a six hour video of yours. I love your voice and all your videos are so interesting. I do enjoy the longer videos.
Lol thanks Cheryl, I definitely need a lot more subscribers like you! 😆👍
I agree with you Steve. I'm retired too and I really don't want the hassle making plans with people presents. I met demands on my time all of my working life.
Glad I’m not the only one Carolyn! 😄👍
A trip out to Palm Springs always makes me feel good. It's such a friendly, laid back place. You can get a modest condo for about $300,000 but a classic mid mod home is going to start at about $700,000 on up. Also, the summers are brutal. The heat is intense, often around 105- 110 every day. So your lifestyle wlll have to adjust to that...like..no hiking!
Habitat restoration usually involves planting native plants.
I agree about bike riding-here in LA it's suicidal, as much as they push and push people to stop driving and ride a bike instead. Not realistic.
Exactly BB, Sadly every summer hikers forget how hot it gets here and how fast you can get dehydrated and they die while hiking up in the hills! 🥵 And as much as I would love to ride a bike every day he said it exactly. I can’t even imagine trying to do it up in LA! 😳 we do have the new CV link though for bicycles that completely bypasses all motor vehicles, so I might have to try that at some point. Thanks for sharing 😎👍
Love these video. Steve, have you ever thought of doing a walk though Idyllwild? Love visiting there when I come to Palm Springs.
Hi Bach, thanks for the suggestion. It’s been years since I’ve been up there and walked around. Maybe I will take a drive up there this summer and spend the day. 😎👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteve That would be wonderful! Thank you!
Love your walking videos. The scenery is very nice. 😊 The length of the video doesn't matter to me. I'll watch either way.
Thank you Renee. I appreciate the feedback. 😄👍
Love your long videos i can leave playing as a i get ready in the morning 😊
Thanks for the feedback! 😄👍
All my neighbors in Escena are gay. Everyone on my street. It's a gay Mecca behind these gates. I LOVE IT.
That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing that with us. It’s similar to the neighborhood where I live! 😄👍
Thanks so much for the walking tour!! Watching video while on vacation in Palm Springs
Lol That’s funny. Hope you’re having a fun vacation! 😎👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteve I am! It’s absolutely gorgeous here. Thankyou so very much🙂
Thank you for showing us around. I love these walking videos!!!! I also love the long ones...lol.
Glad you like them! Thanks for the feedback Darlene. 👍
Hey Steve I enjoyed the video, y'all is having such a good weather in palm springs.
Glad to hear that Syreeta and yes it has been really nice this spring. 😎👍
You always put out Good videos, on Palm Springs 🤗my cousin lives there 💕 Charlie Phoenix! Does the Home’s tours (Sept.) think in May is the Tiki Celiente (first Tiki show, before Tiki Oasis in San Diego) 😬
Thanks for the heads up Frank. I am not familiar with his tours, but I will keep an eye out. I love all the tees. I see around town. I was planning to do a video on that myself at some point. I didn’t know that San Diego was into Tiki too! Palm Springs has always been a big Tikki town! 😄👍
Great tour, Steve. Man, I could not agree more with you re: meeting strangers, etc. I think most people mean well but I get what you're saying. Here's an offbeat question for you: Have you ever asked anyone for an autograph? I like both of your channels and I enjoy your familiar voice. Thank you.
Thanks for another great question SB! I will answer it in a future video. And thanks for the question you asked in this video. 😄👍
I just changed my last name to my husband's when we got married. I love your video and wouldn't mind one-hour long ones. You and Jim take care.
Hi Maria, congratulations on the marriage and thank you for the feedback! 😎👍
Thanks for the promo!!
Thanks for being a part of the video lol! 😎👍
Hi Steve. Another great video. I also don't like planning things since retiring. And the doctor appts are especially annoying LOLOLOL.
Lol I know, right? Thanks guys! 😎👍
I like all your videos, no matter the length. I plan to watch them around my work schedule.
Awesome, thank you for the feedback Sharon! 😄👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteve Thank you for the interesting videos!
Long or short I love all your videos Steve!
Thanks Thomas! 😄👍
You can make either short or long videos and I'll be here. Enjoying walking with you
Thanks for the feedback Sheila 😎👍
Thanks for another great walking video! All that with information/research and a dose of common sense. My idea of retirement would be lower costs and getting to spend my money on things that I really want to see & do. 1/2 hour to 1 hour videos seem reasonable to me, of course that depends on the subject matter. It’s really your time and your choice. Thank care ❤️ Paul
As always, thanks for sharing with us Paul and thanks for the feedback! I think you hit the nail on the head. The topic and subject matter is always more important than the length. 😄👍
I luv Palm Springs beautiful oasis in the desert, mother nature is a sight to behold with all the tropical plant life and mountains in background, hour long videos are fabulous I could watch all day
Thanks for the feedback Cath! 😎👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteve you’re welcome 🌴🤗
Love the walk and talk vids - a great way to experience Palm Springs. The longer the better since I watch at home on my tv
Thanks for the feedback Joe. I appreciate that. 😎👍
@@theretiredlifewithsteveSteve did you see that the Gabor home aka The Pink Palace is up for sale?
I like the longer videos. I would watch any length video you share with us. 😊
Thanks For the feedback Dana! 😎👍
Do whatever works best for you. I always watch your videos. I find them very interesting. 👍✌️👌😊
Awesome! Thank you Virginia! 😎👍
I am a straight woman who finds the most enjoyable experiences are with the LBGTQ community. I absolutely love Palm Springs. I can’t wait to live there, as an interior designer, help make beautiful homes to support the community. Thank you for the great video - manifesting my future through great videos like this!
That’s awesome Carol! You will be very welcomed and I’m sure you will love it here when the time comes! 😎👍
I like the way you pan your camera nice and slowly. Are you a pro? ❤️
Thanks carwai! No, I’m not a pro and I appreciate the feedback. When I first started doing TH-cam about seven years ago, viewers used to complain that I panned too fast, so that helped me to slow down. 😄👍
Hi Steve I enjoy your videos so much especially after a busy day at work I find it relaxing and coming from Australia I see a lot of similarities to Palm Springs- the longer the better xxx
Thanks for the feedback Lee. I think I have mentioned on this channel that Jim and I have been to Australia twice. We felt the same thing, that Australia is a lot like Southern California. I think that’s why we loved Australia so much! 😄👍
Hi Steve nice to see you I like long video I find your voice is nice and carmine I like all your videos I have watched 😊you take care out there Steve
Thanks for the feedback Kathleen. I appreciate that! 😄👍
Your insights are very accurate in my estimation. I am a native of the greater Los Angeles area. Housing prices in the metro areas of California are higher than most other states. Clearly, luxury & exclusive neighborhoods in other states could be priced equally or higher. Also your advice on gay community integration there in Palm Springs sounded reasonable. Thanks for the friendly walking tour. In general, 25 to 30 minutes videos are good lengths for the mean of viewers; statistically speaking.
Hi PL, thanks for the feedback and I agree with you. I’m going to try to shoot for 30 minute videos going forward. I’ll just have to try to control myself and not talk so much during my walks lol. Or break them into multiple different videos. 😎👍
This is very interesting. This place is very nice place to live. Love it.
It sure is Jerry 😎👍
I love all your video's but the walking ones are the best. Seeing around Palm Springs is very nice. I've been to California several times. For me it's a nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there, (to expensive, our gas it not even 4.00 cash or charge) just my option. I moved from Maryland to Florida where it gets as hot as Palm Springs. My vote is for longer video's 😁
Thanks for the feedback d! And thanks for being a part of my last video. The one where I walked through the cemetery. 😎👍
Thanks Steve for your video - Important for older, more mature LGBTQ+ retiree's to know this type of information. Hard to say, all of California is expensive and actually, my housing expenses and car insurance increased moving to PS which I found surprising - Thats the only trade off because its a great place to be, including the heat during the summer months. I love your videos!
Thanks Stevie, yikes that is surprising that both would go up! 😳
Oh, Steve! Bring on the longer videos!! One hour, two hours, fine by me!! Bring on more cemeteries and lovely Palm Springs neighborhoods! ❤
Thanks for the feedback Betsy! 😄👍
Thanks for the tour. Couldn't afford to live there but would love to. Long lost relative gives me $200,000. I'd definitely try one of those condos. My fixed income would help with the hmo costs very well.
Thanks for watching John and fingers crossed you get that mysterious wind fall one day! 😄🤞
Make videos however suits you! Burnout is real 😩💕
Thanks for another fun chit walk! 🏜🌻
Thanks DN! 😎👍
I assumed you were 60 at the oldest! I can't wait to move to Palm Springs with my husband. Sick of rain and grey weather days in the UK. I live on the so called 'sunshine coast' yet we've had so much rain this year. There is currently a one bed apartment at Palm Springs Villas 2 for $234,500.
Thanks pobstrel. For that price it must really be nice. 😎👍
Hi Steve, I like 20 to 30 minutes in general, but if the content, topic and scenery are interesting I make an exception. If longer I watch it in 2 or 3 sittings, not all at once.
Hi Foster, thanks for the feedback. I’m like you. If the content and topic is good then it doesn’t really matter how long it is. The hard part is that as a TH-cam or you never really know what people will be interested in. Most of my videos got 1000 to 2000 views, but when I walked in the cemetery the other day for some reason that video got almost 15,000 views lol. But my other cemetery walks usually only got 1000 to 2000 views like the others. Usually well I think viewers will really like a video it turns out to be a complete bomb and when I think it’s a video no one will watch it usually turns out to be super popular lol! My gauge of what other people like to watch is definitely broken so I just do the videos I like to do and every now and then my subscribers like them too lol! 😄👍
Looks beautiful place to live. Is it pedestrian friendly do you think Steve?
Hi Chad, unfortunately no. Most of the older neighborhoods don’t have sidewalks. And there aren’t a lot of street lights, and we have a lot of drunk tourists in town on vacation so pedestrians and bicyclists get run over all the time. 😩 I have to stay very vigilant when I’m out walking! 😳 thanks for the great question. I will try to answer it for everyone in a future video. 👍
Enjoyed again, Steve, the go to guy,another QUESTION, have you and Jim been to the zoo, with the trains in PALM SPRINGS
Hi John, yes, I went about a year ago with my brothers when they were in town. I shared one short video on this channel of the giraffes. At the time I wasn’t thinking about doing really long video walks. I did film the entire day, but I did it vertically instead of horizontally thinking that I was just going to share it as shorts. We will definitely be going back and I will share a longer, full video at that time. Thanks for asking John! 😎👍
I always enjoy your videos but, my attention span is usually only good for 30 min😉
Thanks for the feedback Marla. I think I’m going to shoot for 30 minute videos going forward. That seems to be a pretty ideal time for most people. 😄👍
You and I lost our moms at nearly the same time and I know time has left me able to remember with smiles. I hope the same applies to you. If so, I would love to know a favorite story that is most fond. Pardon me if I am too intrusive!
Hi William, yes, I have lots and lots of good memories too. I guess we are lucky in that way. That’s a great question and I will answer it in a future video. Maybe I will wait until next Mother’s Day to answer it. Thanks 👍
It's always a good thing to ask a local about the area , as you get a more honest opinion without the sales spin
😎👍
I lived in Palm Springs in the late 80's early 90's and my boyfriend was a landscape designer. Oleanders had a disease that spread very quickly killing off beautiful privacy hedges. They even had to remove them on the I10 median near Banning. Ficus became the new privacy hedges around town!
Hi mrk, thanks for sharing that with us. I still prefer the Oleander hedges, but you are right, the privacy hedges are all now ficus. I’ve heard that ficus bushes have even more invasive roots than oleanders! 😳🙁
What's the coldest temps there in winter months?
Hi Todd, that’s a great question. I will answer it in an upcoming video! 😎👍
Hi Steve, Is there honestly a bad part of PS? Or perhaps I should ask, what do you consider to be a bad part?
I was surprised to hear that houses are cheaper in the "windy" part of PS. I can honestly say that is a new one for me as far as housing prices go.
I was one of the people that was confused about your grandson. Plus he lost a lot of weight and looked so different. I wanted desperately to change my name when I was a kid up into my late 20's. I hated my name because there are several spellings of Stacy. People always spelled it wrong and my spelling is the unisex spelling. As in Stacy Keach, for a famous example.
I have a question and you can just answer it here if you prefer. I noticed throughout PS that in front of most homes there's walls or high hedges or both. Do you know if this was started by famous people wanting privacy or just a common build design?
And I watch all the videos you post. So there's my answer. Have a lovely week and hi to Jim. Peace...
Hi Stacy, thanks for the feedback on the length of the videos. And thank you for the multiple questions. I will answer them in future videos! 😎👍
I hated my first name so much, I legally changed it when I was 40. Been 20 years now. My only regret is that I didn't do it when I was in my early 20's. My new name is Reid. I love it. But I won't mention that other hated name. I was teased a lot and made fun of. The last straw for me was when I was in the bank one day and the teller looked at my name, looked at me and said, (verbatim), "Why did your parents name you that. Did they not like you." People can be cruel even in adulthood. I understand now how hard it is for parents to choose a name for their new child. Try picking one out for yourself.
Hi Reid, wow, thank you for sharing this personal story with us. Someone else also mentioned changing their name so I will probably share your stories together in a future video. I agree that Reid is an excellent name. Glad you found a name that you can live with and love! 😄 did you ever ask your parents why they named you with the other name? Now, of course you have me curious about what your old name was lol! 😄
@@theretiredlifewithsteve Well I was named (first and middle name) after both my grandfathers. I never had an issue with my first name, but when I got teased, I always thought it was disrespecting my grandfather. All the bullying, teasing and people making fun of my name stopped as soon as I changed it.
Steve, I enjoy all of your videos on both of your channels, but I will admit that my attention begins to wander after between 40 and 45 minutes.
Thanks for the feedback Kevin. I appreciate that! 😄👍
I saw the house I was talking about in one of your celebrity hourlse tours.
I found it on google.
My favorite celebrity lives in a 1 level home with a red roof, white walls of his home.
The roof is flat with a white barrier off to the right of the property.
Him, his husband has three dogs, a nice pool in the backyard with a water fountain near it.
❤😊
Hi Kelly, Who is the celebrity?
@steveinpalmspringsca His name is John Barrowman.😊🏳️🌈❤️
Very beautiful area Steve tfs❤
Glad you enjoyed it Jackie. I don’t know what TFS means though lol! 😄
@@theretiredlifewithsteve trs is thanks for sharing now you know ! 😂 big hugs 🤗
A lovely place...I can only dream.
😎👍
Hello Steve, I just found your second channel, been a subbie of your graveyard one for a while. I have never changed my name, my family used to call me by my nick name and I asked them to use my given name when I was 13. I thought I was a grown woman then! I am married and my husband uses his surname and I use mine. My cousin who transitioned changed her first name (dead name) to a name more fitting for a lady (her comment). She lives in NM and it is not friendly.
Hi Mikki, thank you for sharing that with us. So sorry to hear that your cousin is living in an unfriendly state or city. 🙁 i’m surprised to hear that though. I just watched a TH-cam video a couple of days ago that said New Mexico has one of the largest number of LGBTQ plus people in the country. I thought the video also said it was very LGBTQ plus family. I guess it always comes down to the towns or the cities or even the neighborhoods. I hope she is able to move at some point and find a friendlier community. unfortunately, in this current political environment the hate is spreading everywhere fast. 😩🤞👍
Stay cool Steve!
Thanks Colleen! 😎👍
I find 40 minutes is ideal I have 40 minute lunch break at work that’s when waich your down load I love seeing it
Hi Stephen, thanks for the feedback. I watch TH-cam videos when I’m eating lunch too. 😄👍
I took my husband’s last name and wow, it confuses the heck out of folks. 😂
😂👍
Cool videos
Thanks Beth! 😎👍
I’m just watching this video in July 2024 but Steve if you can find that person who asked about places to live. You should see if they be interested in moving close by palm springs because that community Marsha lives in is a really nice place. They look affordable
Hi Denise, it’s a half hour away from Palm Springs, but it definitely has a lot more affordable. 👍
RUN Steve 😵💫Intruder Alert 🚨💥😏💕
😳😆👍
When will Steve for 24 hours be available!
Lol all live all the time! 😳😲😂
1 hour fan club member.
Thanks for the feedback Edward. That’s good to know! 😎👍
As a LGBT woman, I wish more women were in PS…I also like a balanced community- men and women. I love a mix! Love men and women more integrated.
I agree 😎👍
It's fine if you did a long video I'll watch what ever you post
Thanks for the feedback Tanya! 😎👍
😀
Palm Springs Prices seem cheap. In Siliycon Valley you would be lucky to find a home starting at $1m. Do the Homes also have "HOA's"... I don't like HOA's... What about crime in PS?
Hi B, all of the newer home developments have HO ways. Most of the older ones don’t. But many of the older ones are an Indian least lad so you don’t own the land. You pay a lease fee to live there. I guess it’s all relative isn’t it? Thanks for sharing that with us. 😎👍
1 hour is a good length
Thanks for the feedback Christina! 😎👍
I have found most of the Coachella Valley is very gay friendly, so Palm Springs is not the end-all place for gay retirees. We live at Sun City Palm Desert, which has a very active Rainbow Club with many events set throughout the week.
I agree Harry, I thought I said that. Thanks for mentioning Sun City and the rainbow club. That’s awesome. I love Sun City! 😎👍🏳️🌈
@@theretiredlifewithsteve I should note I also love seeing your videos. We moved here from San Diego 3 years ago. Love it. Than you again for your kind response. :-)
is sun city a mix of gay men and women?
@ladesigner8764 The Rainbow Club is very active at Sun City, with casino nights, Friendsgiving, holiday parties and more. On our street alone, there are two gay couples and a third lesbian one with whom we were invited for dinner. It's also quite accepting here. We consider ourselves more suburban gays. We don't go to the bars much anymore but love the gay friendly lifestyle and entertainment here. We feel *very* comfortable here. :-)
My first husbands mom changed her name she was born Elizabeth Elaine but she went by Elaine and her closest friends called her Betty
😊👍
Sorry Steve... No comment today...👍
1983 Yucca Place, Palm Springs, California was the home of Joan Davis' daughter Beverly Wills who died with rest of her family in a fire .
Hi JJJ, thanks for mentioning her. I made and shared a video about what happened at her house about three months ago. If you scroll back through my videos you can find it and watch it. Thanks 👍
I am open to 2 hour videos.
Thanks for the feedback Edward! 😄👍
No plans ever…ain’t it wonderful?
Lol it sure has William! 😄👍
I am hoping to come to the u s a sometimes in the next 5 years I will message you and I will do what you said try to see you walking
Sounds great Stephen! 😎👍
gas is so cheap in PS compared to San Diego.
$500,000.00 is not affordable for anyone not making 6 figures a year and make car payments. 90 degrees plus in the summer is not comfortable.
Hi Mark, I agree about the prices. For me though, 100° feels pretty nice here in PS because it’s a dry heat. Most the time we have no humidity so the heat feels kind of nice. Not if you are walking or standing in direct sunlight, but in the shade. But I’m probably only one on the planet who feels that way lol! 🤣
@steveinpalmspringsca yes the dry heat makes a world of difference. Here in Michigan when we get close to 90 in the summer it's usually humid.
With the high cost of real-estate now days I won't be moving. I'm 69, to old to move alone.
hmmm all of them hahaha
What do u do in summer time??? When on June28 it's 110??? Heard it goes to 120???? Sometimes 125???? You can tell me it's cool there??? Because they have low humidity???? Lowest price condo is 169???? Very cheap. I wonder how that place is compared to Wilton Manors???? Wilton Manors has 13000 people lowest condo is 200000 in 1bedin Oakland Park. Lowest one bedroom condo in nearby LAUDERHILL is only 75000that is bargain price except that area is mostly black dangerous too bad for friend she got mugged so she moved but let's get the gay people to buy in and change neighborhood that's what they did to Oakland Park and that's what they did and now it's getting expensive but there are some cheap spots and Wilton Manors was very very cheap 30 years ago I know it's getting more expensive cheapest places there one bedroom with 250000or 300000???
Thanks for sharing that with us. Prices to rent or Ville are just crazy now everywhere. I love the summer heat, but I know I’m in the minority about that lol! 🥵😎👍
Girl, It's too Hot to be out Honey.
lol 🥵😆👍
I understand the gay porn industry is HUGE in PS. What's the truth?
Hi Steven, that would not surprise me at all, but to be honest I’ve never heard anything about porn films being made here in Palm Springs. Now that you’ve put it on my radar maybe I will lol! 😄👍
Lol, what is too gay or not gay enough?
Lol, I guess I was just trying to say that we aren’t your typical gay stereotypes! 😂
@@theretiredlifewithsteve You're just two nice guys that have loved each other a long time. 😀

Hi Rex, I know what you mean. It’s pretty crazy isn’t it? My parents paid $15,000 for a brand new four bedroom, two bathroom home in a really nice suburb just 20 minutes from downtown Los Angeles back in 1960. The house is now worth around $800,000 lol! 😳 unfortunately they sold it in the 1970s! 😩
