Falcon Ridge and The Palmer

 Another trip to Mesquite to try out the other golf courses.  We played at Falcon Ridge the first day.

                    It was absolutely beautiful.  AND so fun.  AND difficult.










It was probably the most difficult course I have ever played and it was challenging for sure.  But fun.  I did ok, but was tired because there was lots of walking up and down hills to get to the tee box or get your ball or get back to the cart.  But I did it!  

Ate dinner at the golf course and then a trip to the hot tub. 



We stopped for dinner in St. George at this Indian restaurant called Turmeric and it was fabulous.  We ate there last time because we couldn't find anywhere else that wasn't busy and loved it.  That is the Naan bread with garlic.  A must.  LOVE it.

We stayed at the Virgin river in Mesquite. Not the best.  It was all that was available but it wasn't the worst and it had a hot tub that was open til 9:00.  

The Second day we played at The Palmer.  This was some of their favorite course and it was designed by Arnold Palmer.  Hence the name Palmer.


This was a Golf Club. I sure felt out of place at such a great course.  I mean, they pick up your clubs and take them down to your cart, then wipe off your clubs when you are finished and put the head covers on and put them back in the car.  The problem is that you have to remember to have some cash with you to tip them. 


Thats my friend Sandra. She's a great golfer


That's Sandra again, and Kent and Frank.  They are all good golfers.  I'm like the weakest link.  I don't even bring that great of snacks.  


The holes were so great and so long and up hill and down hill.  I liked this course much better than Falcon Ridge.  I even got a par.  :)  and a few bogeys.







Great weekend for Golf. We came home to a Snow Storm.  So much storm that school was on remote learning due to Snow.  




Loved it and can't wait to go back.
