Actually, the drones don't need room to fly. A deck makes a great field for a drone. I wish the county would let airplanes have a couple holes every couple weeks. Numbers 11 and 12 at Greendale would be great. Players could go straight from 10 to 13. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

I have no objection to that so long as they abide by the rules and pay the fees for the use of the course. |

The friendliness and camaraderie might rub off on you. In a way it's like boating where participants look after each other, usually. But, as in every social situation, there's always a few jerks who won't play nice. |
