Brandon's new job!

My big brother Brandon is now the golf course Superintendent for the Gainey Ranch Golf Club in Scottsdale!! It's a MAJOR step up for him and what he's been dreaming about for years. Gainey Ranch has the golf club and course, plus a world-renowned Hyatt Regency and a spa. It's also well-known for the gondola rides. We took Nannie and Poppie to the restaurant there for their 60th anniversary last summer.
The web site said this: "Gainey Ranch Golf Club, an award-winning 27-hole private golf club, offers unparalleled golf on three distinctive, championship 9-hole courses: The Lakes, The Dunes and The Arroyo. Nestled in the heart of paradise, Gainey Ranch was once an historic Arabian horse ranch owned by Daniel C. Gainey. With panoramic views of the McDowell Mountains, the allure of the Sonoran Desert and breathtaking blue skies, Gainey Ranch is more than just a golf club; it’s a home away from home." Ooooo, impressive! :)
Here's another description:
"Set within the 560-acre Gainey Ranch, this 27-acre desert oasis combines the beauty of the majestic McDowell Mountains, palm trees, cacti and wild flowers with the spirit of native peoples to create a sense of comfortable elegance."


Isn't that awesome??? This is more of the resort itself:


There's tons of cool pictures on the resort web site if you're curious (or planning a trip out here!):
