Oscar's Cafe

June 27, 2014 Day 16

Today was golf day, first time since we have been on the road, felt good to get back on the course.  We played in the morning because it was cooler, 8:21 tee time.  Ronnie put together a group of a couple of his friends Paul and Mark.  We played at St.  George Golf Club and if you want to post your score it's St. George G C.  We walked 9 holes, with a pull cart except for Paul who is recovering from a knee replacement and felt he needed to ride.  The front nine was a par 37 and I shot 42 with a birdie and a double Bogey.  The birdie was a the number 4, par 3, Swan hole.

After golf we went by Ronnie's church to see his handy work on the new auditorium addition that was constructed mostly by volunteers.  It turned out very nice and added a significant amount of new space for their growing congregation.

That evening we went to Oscar's Cafe, located at the entrance to Zion National Park.  Oscars is a place that we had visited a few years past when we came to Zion with Ronnie and friends.  They have terrific Mexican food, as close to New Mexican, Mexican food you can find outside of New Mexico.  I had pork enchiladas with, you guessed it, green Chile and it was not disappointing.  It is Utah and it was a beer and wine kind of place, I had the house sangria.

After dinner we went into Zion and up through the tunnels. The more that mile long tunnels construction began in 1920 and was completed in  1930 and dedicated on July 4, 1930.  Quite a feat.

Zion is about an hour away from St. George and upon our return we were ready for some ice cream.  There was a new Culver's in town that Ronnie wanted to try.
