The April Putt put on by Jim and Carol Dalton was aboard The Steamboat Dolly on Canyon Lake. We had 19 members and 2 guest plus a full boat of paying passengers. If you haven’t taken this cruise, it is highly recommended. The slow cruising around the lake added for a very relaxing time. We enjoyed the scenery of the shapes and colors of the cliffs of the canyon that borders the lake. We were also lucky enough to see two Bald Eagles and their nest. As the boat got closer the birds took flight as if it was planned. They flew around for a short time and returned to the nest. It is always amazing to see these beautiful birds in flight. As we neared the turn around area of the lake, we were treated to a heard of Long Horn Sheep. The boat ride lasted for about an hour and a half. After the cruise we all headed up to Tortilla Flats which was only a few miles up the road. Jim and Carol had made reservations for us at the Superstition Saloon. We were all seated together and within an hour, we had all eaten and were ready to leave. We had great service and great food and a GREAT DAY. Thank you Jim and Carol for a fantastic Putt.
