June 25, 2014 Day 14
Today I needed a distraction, so I thought about hitting some golf balls. I have not picked up a club since before we left Sun City. Searching the Internet I settled on the driving range at Dixie Red Hills Golf Course. It was about three miles away up Bluff Road. Seemed like a nice place on the side of a hill. A large bucket was $5, and off I went. Pretty steep trail down to the ninth green and the driving range, even steeper coming back up after hitting balls or finishing 9 holes. The exercise did me good and the practice did me even better, some good, some not so good. Hoping to get in a round sometime this week.
This evening we had Happy Hour with Marcia and Franz at their house way up on the hill, along with a friend from McCall last year, Eddie P. It's amazing how trends get started and it must be a St. George thing, but the olives that Franz served Sharon had a price tag on them of $.25. There house has a very nice view out over the valley and the city of St. George.

We had dinner at the Cliff Side restaurant which was very enjoyable and with the same view as we had from their living room. Cliff Side is a remodeled place that went in dis-repair when the city Airport relocated south of town.

When we got back to the RV park I took another evening walk, but today I did not make my goal.
