We Have A 1:30 Tee Time

Still on vacation.  I never want this to end.  I love it here so much!

Thursday, April 14th: Dad and I went to trek along the east side of Saguaro National Park.  Driving through the loop, I had flashbacks to when I was back in high school, and Krista and I running through the cacti up and over rocks just playing in the wilderness.  It was fun to revisit those memories.  The cactus were stunning as per usual.  Look at the pictures below; in some of them I look JUST like a Saguaro.  See if you can pick me out. ;)

We ate some delicious Lebanese food for lunch, and then I just laid out poolside to soak up some hot Arizona sun.  After laying out for a few hours, Dad and I made our way to the west side of Saguaro National Park to see the sunset over the cacti.  It was truly beautiful.  We also found some Saguaro flowers.  We definitely came at the right time of year.

Oh, and this is our resort.

Friday, April 15th: Dad, his cousin Bret, and I went out for a BBQ lunch before our 1:30 tee time.  Golfing along the Sonoran Desert was incredible.  My favorite part about golfing was getting out in the fresh air and being in the beautiful scenery...And seeing the cottontail rabbit was fun, too!  After golfing, we went over to Bret and Kim's house where I got to play with some of my 2nd cousins (I think that's what they are called.  My Dad's cousin's kids.).  They are so awesome, and so much fun!  I wish I could see more of them.  I got to throw and spin balls, draw, play Blokus, see Luigi the turtle, see caterpillars in cocoon form, watch YouTube videos about vegetables being StarWars, see a strings performance to one of my favorite church hymns, had a delicious dinner, and I learned all about the bravest animal in all of Africa...HONEY BADGERS!  Pretty rad!  Today was my favorite day of the tip so far...There is just something so special about being with family.

Love,
Sean
