places blog mesa arizona 1995..also zions 1995

a trip by plane with kid w and kid q{our last two}, staying at this luxerious oasis in the desert with swimmimg pools, palm trees, tennis courts, golf course and a work out room... W and i even went the the famous hooters against the advice of the whole extended family, and yes they were larger...w hit a bucket of golf balls in the 110 degree sun and we both played some tennis which was uncomfortable for me in that heat....on the plane ride we took a longer route to san francisco, so they got a bird's eye view out the window, as he swept the california coast, 1 hour layover and then on on to mesa...we went to see a baseball game and saw randy johnson pitch an almost no hitter...we collected some bobble head dolls of players we collected at the baseball game....on our way home we stopped at zion's national park and were caught in a down pour and the water came cascading off the rocks sweeping across the road in rimlets...little tommy smothers said to tell you about the water sweeping and cascading across the road in RIMLETS...we drove through a cave in the middle of the mountain and saw the great white throne towering 2400 feet above the trees on the banks of the virgin river
