Round One - The Raven











Another early morning!  We were up at 5:30 but this time we enjoyed breakfast at home.   We drove to The Raven Golf Course.  We were excited and ready for the challenge.  We hit some balls before we started.  Oh oh, if this is any indication to how my game is going to be it is not looking good.  It was warm today.  The girls brought sweaters along but we didn’t really need them.  We overdressed for the Balloon ride and underdressed for the Jeep tour.  Today the ladies were overdressed but it was easy to pull off layers.  The Raven was challenging and it was difficult to find your ball if you landed in the rough.  We had cart path rules only and I could feel my feet at the end of the day.  We did see a Road Runner again today.  Not such a pretty bird but fun to say you saw one.  We enjoyed a drink at the course afterwards and then did some more shopping at another PGA store.  When we sat in the car the temperatures was 100 degrees.  We went to visit the Eagle Mountain, the course we are golfing at tomorrow .  We saw people driving their carts along the sides of the mountain.  Looks like it too will be very challenging.  We headed home and enjoyed a happy hour.  Lawrence, Grace and I went for a dip in the pool and hot tub while Ralph enjoyed a quick nap.  We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Charleston’s, serving Prime Rib, Steak, Pork Chops and Ribs.   Once we were home, we had a random draw to see who would win our Golf Competition.   Congratulations to Ralph for winning Round 1.  Tonight will be early for an early start in the morning.
