Eagle Mountain and Hiking The Hole in the Rock

This morning we are very excited as we get to go golfing again.  We were up by 5:30 and on the road by 6:15.  We enjoyed some breakfast and headed down to the golf course.  The weather was much cooler to start out with at 50 degrees.  We started off with a warm coffee.  We hit some balls at the driving range and practiced some putting.  We saw a few bunnies on the course and our first sighting of road runners again. There was a pair running around but we didn't have our cameras ready to take a picture.  The course was not in a good condition as we remembered it from last time but it was good to be out again.  As the sun came up the weather got warmer and eventually we were taking our sweaters off.  We enjoyed a glass of wine and beer with the lunch we had brought and than headed home so Ralph could finish working on his homework.  Grace and Teresa went for a soak in the hot tub for a while.

We decided it might be nice to try a small hike before going out for dinner.  We went to Papago Park where they have a trail that brings you to a Hole in the Rock. It was a short hike but very scenic. At this time the moon was starting to rise already.  It is almost a full moon.

We enjoyed going back to the restaurant that Anita and Tony like to go to, The Cantina Loredo for some more yummy guacamole.  Our meal was very good.

We headed back to our Condo, made our lunches for tomorrow and had our little competition that we do when we go golfing.  Today's competition was the most greens in regulation for even holes only.  Ralph was the winner of our first competition.  Grace had the joy of congratulation him.









How can a lone tree grow out of the rock?

The moon is starting to rise
