About The Cover:
Welcome to July when the temperature in the water approaches a snuggly-warm-bath and happiness is a sturdy pool float, the smell of coconut tanning oil and the icy chill of your favorite beverage. Ethan Kaminsky captures it. Everything But Water, Palm
Desert, provides the unnecessary suit.
Now We has Jazz
The founder of Jazzercise, Judi Sheppard Missett, has found a gome in Palm Desert, where you’re likely to find here at the Community College Center leading an occassional class. As you’ll read, she’s fallen hard for the area’s charms.
Splash Diet
Gregg Alexander teaches water aerobics, one of the most healthful ways to get and stay in shape. (It’s safe because your skeletal system is supported during the exercises, thus eliminating one of the biggest causes of spine injuries.) The photography accompanying the story (as well as the one on this page and the
cover) is Ethan Kaminsky.
