Take a Holiday
After The Holidays- Explore Sedona, Arizona
Oh, the Holidays,
a time for family and traditions. But it is also a time for
running around, entertaining relatives, cooking, cleaning, etc.
This year why not get away and reenergize with a trip to
Arizona’s Red Rock country, Sedona.
To REALLY relax,
one must have a great place to stay. The Ridge on Sedona Golf
Resort is the perfect place to reenergize. Located on the Sedona
Golf Resort and surrounded by Red Rocks, the resort features:
heated pools, hot tubs, spa services, fitness center (to keep
those resolutions!) and personal Concierge service. The one
bedroom suite offers: fireplace, whirlpool tub, private patio or
balcony, full kitchen and washer/dryer. Imagine getting a
massage then coming back to the suite and sitting on the
balcony, sipping a drink and enjoying the views.
Now that
accommodations are taken care of, there still is the matter of
what to do… Sedona has so many great activities and tours that
there really is something for everybody. One of the most popular
activities is a Jeep Tour. Jeep Tours are available wild, mild,
on-road, off-road, vortex and more. A Jeep Tour is a fantastic
way to explore Sedona’s Red Rocks. Feeling a little more
adventurous? How about a Helicopter ride? They are not only
thrilling, but also informative as one is able to see Ancient
Ruins that aren’t accessible by ground. Additionally, Sedona is
only a few hours from The Grand Canyon. A vacation to Sedona is
a great opportunity to visit one of the world’s natural wonders.
One can also horseback ride, golf, visit wineries, hike,
mountain bike, shop art galleries and more.

Texas Tee-Off:
Golfing in the Lone Star State
Photo by J.
Griffis Smith/TxDOT
With a mild climate, a storied past, and more
than 800 courses strewn across rugged desert
mountains, piney woods, sand greens, and seaside
links, Texas is blazing a trail in the world of
golf. As lush public, private and resort courses
develop across the Lone Star State, Texas is
fast becoming a destination hotspot, a
year-round golf destination, and a golf lover’s
getaway that rivals some of the best locales in
the country.
Golfers of all skill levels are challenged and
awed by Texas’ enormous selection of golf
facilities, from world-famous courses and
wildlife watching opportunities to inexpensive
golfing on some of the nation’s prettiest
terrain. A place called home by legends of the
game – including Ben Crenshaw, Ben Hogan, Nancy
Lopez, Byron Nelson, Lee Trevino and Babe
Zaharias – Texas beckons pros and amateurs alike
from all over the world. And from the Gulf Coast
to the Big Bend, the choices state-wide are
truly endless.

information about golfing throughout the state
of Texas,

If Ever I Cease to
Love:
New Orleans Mardi Gras Traditions Cross Over
Valentine’s Celebrations
January 6-February 11, 2010
Every year from January 6, or Twelfth Night as
it is called, through Mardi Gras some five weeks
later, the New Orleans air rebounds with
improbable lyrics like “May fish get legs / and
cows lay eggs / if ever I cease to love” – for
the song of that name, “If Ever I Cease to
Love,” from the popular 1870s burlesque show
Blue Beard, has been the anthem of the
prestigious Rex Organization from its first
parade in 1872.
The song, nonsensical though it seems, does link
two of the chief characteristics of New Orleans
itself: Romance and Mardi Gras revelry. And as
it sometimes does, this year Valentine’s Day
falls within ‘the season,’ too, adding another
layer of love and celebration.
At the Soniat House, in the heart of the French
Quarter, and possibly the most romantic spot on
Earth, a flag emblazoned with the legend “If
Ever I Cease to Love” flies high and proud
through the Mardi Gras season.
However you choose to express your own love,
during the 2010 Mardi Gras season, the Soniat
House is presenting a remarkable offer on its
highly romantic accommodations: two people for
two nights is not enough, so we have given a
third night on the house. (January 6-February
11, 2010; pay two nights and get third night
free; based on availability; Mardi Gras and
Valentine’s weekend excluded).

All you need is love…!
