Pioneertown--Past Palm Springs Chic

Old car in Pioneertown, CA
Residents and tourist alike take a break from Palm Springs chic by taking a visit up to Pioneertown, the home of the Western movie set.

Photographic finds like this Chevy make the trip extra special. There are other such nostalgic elements scattered among the old Western faux storefronts, like the Pioneertown typewriter.

The eating place in town is Pappy and Harriets where a good selection of bbq dinners are served in a old Western atmosphere.

Place has got a pool table and bar and can get somewhat rowdy at times (so I hear), but I've never seen any brawls during my several visits to the place.

This place is great in the summer because of the altitude, not to mention the occasional summer concert and/or music events that take place there during that time of year.
