Golf Travel Utah

While on our Las Vegas golf adventure, we managed to get to Utah for a practice round.

Mesquite is one mile from the Arizona border and twenty miles from Utah.

Just be careful when you make your tee time, Utah is on Mountain Time.

St. George is only 45 miles from Mesquite on the Interstate and you travel through the Virgin River Gorge that took eight years to blast out to complete the highway.

The views are spectacular.

We played Coral Canyon www.coralcanyon.com and it was true high desert golf.

The rock formations, shades of color as the sun hit the mountainside, and the pretty layout makes this a must play.

The CasaBlanca Resort-Hotel-Casino-Golf-Spa was our host for the tournament.

A fine restaurant, excellent buffet, great spa, pretty golf course and a full casino make this an excellent option if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas golf travel.

We flew into Las Vegas directly from Providence on Southwest Airlines.

We visited and toured the Hoover Dam and were still in Mesquite four hours after landing.

We will go back, maybe even some day to play in the Mesquite Amateur.

The relaxed pace and well-run tournament makes for a delightful vacation.

Golf Travel Ireland

Who says it rains in Ireland? We had two holes of rain in eight days, although we were told that it had rained quite often this past summer.
Guinness tastes much better in Ireland than it does in the States.
They say it does not travel well and must be consumed soon after it is brewed. We did!!

On our Las Vegas golf travel we played Coral Canyon and it was true high desert golf.

The rock formations, shades of color as the sun hit the mountainside, and the pretty layout makes this a must play.
