Mom and Dad Go To Mesquite

Dad and I had a great time on our $99 weekend getaway at Sun City Mesquite. The hotel wasn't the greatest but you can't beat the price! Mesquite consisted of some casinos and a lot of golf courses. I guess you golf all day and gamble at night. I have never seen so many golfers wandering around!
We started out our visit by checking out the model homes.
Mesquite was a very interesting juxtaposition of desert mesas and snow capped mountains. Here you can see the mountain view from some of the model homes and then you turn around and see barren mesa. Interesting!
Mesquite only gets about four inches of rain each year so not much grows there!
We really enjoyed our round of golf (included!). The golf course had beautiful mountain views and vistas that made you think you might be golfing on the moon. It also had some dramatic drop offs.
Barren!
Mountains!
Moon??
These last two shots are looking back at the community center. I loved the big red rock with the mountains behind it. The actual golf clubhouse hasn't been built yet.

We enjoyed our visit - who knows it could be a second home someday!
