From Death Valley we headed to Sam and Marty's new house in the Lakes of Las Vegas
This is the first time we have seen them since have moved in, and we had a really nice visit with them. Bruce and Marty played several games of Wii golf.
Right after purchasing in this lovely golf community, the Lakes of Las Vegas property management announced that it was closing two of the three courses. The local TV station interviewed Sam about her concerns about being a resident in a high end golf community without a golf course.
Afterwards we took a long walking tour of the grounds
It's a beautiful PGA course with some challenging tee off s
The challenge is getting up the mountain to the green . Even in a cart it is a difficult climb. Then just try to keep your eyes onto where you are driving.The view is fantastic.
There is also the problem of sharing the course with the wildlife,
or finding your ball if it lands out of bounds.
Eventually the climbing got to be a bit much for us senior citizens so Sam rescued us with their ATV. Nice Toy, guys!
Later that afternoon er took a walk around the lake which gives the Lakes of Las Vegas community its named.
The community has p[reserved some surprisingly nice wilderness areas for hiking
Combined with some very urban amenities
Like a Ritz Carlton surrounded by designer shops in a Venetian like village
