Being newly single, I found that my married friends weren't including me in their activities. I was bored and wanted things to do. I also liked the idea of meeting potential dates. Since joining, I have made so many friends, male and female. They have become my support network. I've done so many amazing things and crossed items off my Bucket List...windtunnel skydiving, kayaking, trapeze lessons, to name a few. I learned that I love playing volleyball and have since joined a competitive league. I still love playing with my A2K friends the best because they are a fun and supportive group, and we laugh so much when we're together. We love meeting new people as they join our group. We are sad to see some leave, but that's usually because they have met someone special and that's a good thing too. I haven't met the love of my life yet, but when I do, I hope he will join the club so we can share the fun adventures together. This week, many of our friends are on an Alaskan Cruise. Those of us who chose to stay behind will be having fun as well with a comedy club, Karaoke, a hike, and night golf. There's never a dull moment!

With a variety of games and outdoor vibes on my side, and nice tables and a DJ set on the other side, there's truly something for everyone. Service is always great, and with multiple bars, you can usually get a drink pretty quickly. Ticketed events are always very fairly priced and the drinks are always a fair price, as well. From Pauly D, to Odd Mob, to other incredible DJs, you can expect great talent all year round!

Wanting to try another of their restaurants before the ungodly heat arrived, we decided to stop in for lunch. Parking: can be a bit nerve wracking, especially parking in the dirt lots east of the place. You have to walk across 32nd St & if you know Phoenix drivers, this can be dangerous. There is a pedestrian light now, though, so that helps -- but oddly enough, there's no "walk" signage. It's merely a blinking yellow light for north- sound-bound traffic so you have to pray to the universe drivers are paying attention & actually stop for you. Ordering: a bit odd. The main door we went in was more the middle door that didn't really take you to the beginning. There's a drink station then the food station. We skedaddled to the right of the main doors for the drink order, only to discover there's another door that people walk through to place orders. So we joggled w/ another customer trying to figure out who was there first. It honestly felt like a school cafeteria, a bit chaotic, as well as cramped. The patio was pretty large & well shaded, but it was also full -- and this particular day also the ONLY SHADE. We were left to sit at one of their many tables on the grounds with no shade. Food: not worth the $77 we paid. I get it's a working farm, & though we try to support local as much as possible, the food we ordered was not good enough that we will stop by again. The strawberry fields salad was a typical salad, no wow factor there. The Italian sammy was dry. There was a minuscule amount of some kind of dressing on it, but def not enough. Dessert: red velvet whoopie pie was so overpriced it's not funny. If it tasted great, I wouldn't complain...it did not taste great. The pecan pie was abysmal; not enough filling and very bland. Two "specialty" drinks, a salad, a sandwich, & two small desserts, for $77? No, sorry, not again.

Plus the breaks which I thought would go one way actually went the other way. The tee boxes were green and cut perfect, now off the box there's very few holes where you can miss the fairway and be in bounds. So don't be he man and let your ego take over here cause this course can eat you up quick. Plus the winds in the mountains pick up and make you change your clubs and game real fast. Fairways were green and you can get generous rolls on certain holes which you need to take advantage of. I'm no where near a scratch golfer maybe a + 19 handicap but I don't care I really enjoyed this course and the beautiful views along the way. This is a must okay
