Original Paradise Palms sales brochure. Model #4.

 I think most of the model 4's are on the south side of Desert Inn. There is a beautiful 4A on Chippewa Drive.

I've seen the bi-folding wood doors in action.They are a great feature.

 The majority, if not all of these homes are on the north side of Paradise Palms.

4 bedrooms in a 1250 sq foot house. They fit a lot of home into a small space.

You gotta love some of the features that come with the homes.

Built-in t.v. outlet, built-in spice rack, built-in electric can opener.

I've been told that every home in Paradise Palms came with at least one palm tree. "palm tree" is listed here as one the the features, so maybe that rumor is true.

I'm going to start with the brochure that most people have already seen. Jack at veryvintagevegas.com came across some of these last year and posted them on his blog much to my delight.

Earth day clean up, April 22nd.

Friday, April 22nd is Earth day. We would like to use this as an opportunity to clean up our neighborhood.

Its a great time to spruce up our yards and clean up the trash and debris that resides in the gutters, sidewalks and abandon homes. It only takes a few minutes if we all pitch in and can have a major impact on our environment.

In addition, Lowes is celebrating Earth Day by giving away 1 million trees! All you have to do is stop by your Lowes on April 23rd for yours! Of course this is while supplies last so try to stop by early!
