Congrats to you!  While the snowbirds bailed out, you stayed and survived the long, hot, weird Coachella Valley Summer.  Here are 10 things you deserve as a reward:

1. More shaded parking
2. A local radio station that plays alternative music
3. A Claim Jumper
4. Affordable Friday to Sunday flights from PSP to Las Vegas
5. Local politicians who care about something other than collecting consulting fees and banning young people
6. An IKEA store
7. A happy hour bar that is not filled to the brim with old people
8. A traffic cop who pulls over snowbirds for driving too slow
9. A Baker’s Drive Thru
10. A casino that does not reek of cigarettes

Anything I missed?  Let me know with a comment below.
