Two Days Rest

Yesterday Roscoe got up early for a 7:30 tee time at Canyon Springs Golf Course.  On his way to the course he passed several parked cars who had come to witness the sun rising over the canyon.  A few weeks ago I would have jumped at the chance to do that but sleeping late has more appeal this weekend.  He enjoyed his round but again complained about the fast greens - with 17% humidity they will be fast.

Definitely some boundaries to this golf course!

A long nap was in order for the early riser and I attended to some long deferred household tasks.  Then we set out to see what downtown Twin Falls looks like.  Hmmm - come back in a few years after all the construction is finished.  So we decided to use a coupon given to us at the campground for 2 for 1 drinks at "486" - a restaurant located in a commercial complex  at the edge of the canyon  - a lovely setting!   We could see the golf course from above!  The sun does not set here until almost 10PM so golf can be played well into the evening - after dinner golf anyone?

There are actually two courses - one on either side of the river.

I am amazed at the flora above the canyon - wish I could bring some home.  Alas, they are desert plants, not low country plants.

Today was another golf day - no photos - it was a municipal course and a walking course!  I should have taken a photo of the exhausted golfer collapsed in deep slumber - but I know better!

Tomorrow we head to Cheyenne via Garden City Utah and Rollins Wyoming.  Monday is Pioneer Day in Utah - a (Mormon)holiday that the state celebrates.  We get to Cheyenne on Tuesday.
