Encanto Golf Course – Phoenix, AZ

Phoenix has many, many golf courses.  But most are in the outlying suburbs of Scottsdale, Mesa and the like.  There are few urban courses probably because the land is much more valuable as a shopping center or condos.  But the Encanto Golf Course, built in 1935, is the 3rd oldest course in the state and remains in use today in the center of the city.

    I wasn’t going to comment, but since we now have a mild heat wave, 92 degrees, I must say this looks so refreshing.

    92 is a cold spell. 116 is a heat wave.

    Ouch, my childhood in Yuma Az. running to the corner store, barefoot, trying not to get a blister. :)
