Golf and Thai Food in Needles California (Saturday, May 26th, 2018)

It's Memorial Day weekend, and for us that means staying away from the craziness of the lake and enjoying our sanity.  So today we headed west to Needles, CA for a little golf with friends.  Needles is a small town just across the California border.  We've never been to this course before, but were excited to give it a try.

They had a Memorial Weekend Special of $90 for a foursome.  So off we went for a fun day of golfing.  The course was pretty open, and didn't seem that challenging, but there were a few obstacles like these HUGE salt cedar trees.  And of course, I was the one that got to go exploring in them.

This was the only section of the course that was lined with houses.  It was a nice relief to not have houses on every hole.

When we finished our round of golf we stopped at a little Thai restaurant in Needles.  

It was the tiniest place, and had just a single woman working as a server, cook and bus girl.  Her Tom Kah soup was amazing!  It had all of the authentic ingredients and was really good.  Five Stars!  The rest of the food was fine, but not as great as the Tom Kah.

Steve and Sam in anticipation.

This was the perfect way to get away from the mayhem of the lake and still have a great day out enjoying the weather!  We love golfing with Sam and Sharyn!
