If not, I'll write an essay telling you what I did each and every hour.

Don't want to brag and don't want to bitch. But, I will say that there is a
lot of golf to be played in the Greensboro/Winston-Salem area of North
Carolina. I may just have to move to that neck of the woods.

Daughter's doing pretty good, considering. They had to remove part of her
thyroid, which adds another pill or two to take, but who's counting?

Her spirits are great! Thanks for asking.

The best part was shooting a 94 at Greensboro National. The worst part was
shooting a 117 at Winston Lakes, both golf courses. We didn't get in any
fishing, but I learned a lot from my brother who shoots from mid-70's to
mid-80's, depending on the course.

He convinced me that moving to someplace like Myrtle Beach for the golf and
fishing could get to be a very expensive proposition. The good fishing is a
long ways out and consumes vast quantities of gas. Slip fees are atrocious.

I'm thinking now of the Wake Forest area of NC. There's a decent sized lake
handy, so maybe I'd downgrade to something like a 17' CC with an engine big
enough to tow the grandkids.

You'd move somewhere because of golf? It's 200+ miles from there to the
ocean.


My bro had a 34'er in Myrtle Beach for a few years. After talking to him,
my attitude about 'ocean fishing' has changed somewhat. I'm beginning to
think I may be more of a catfish and/or bass kind of guy, with some perch,
crappie, or blue gill thrown in.

Golf has, admittedly, become a passion of sort. Unlike you, I didn't start
in the low 80's (which story, BTW, my brother didn't put much credence in).
I started last year in the high 120's, and have found it to be a hell of a
challenge.

I think JohnH desperately missed his sheriff duties while away.
What luck...he returned just a day after Chuck went on his vacation. We
only had one day to 'act up' & do whatever we wanted without getting our
knuckles rapped.

Yep.

Where was he when Kevin jumped into the thread yesterday as the number one
poster *ruining* his summer vacation post? Can there be something going on
with those 2? Is romance in the air?

And what kind of summer vacation post is it when all you say is that you had
a gay old time?

That's one thing about here. there's a big lake with gobs of fishing,
and several golf courses, I don't know a thing about golf, but there's
several places around. Carlyle Lake is just 50 mi. from the great
Mississippi and St. Louis, where there's always something happening.

The real drawback is the land doesn't ahve much beauty to it. mostly
corn and bean fields. That is unless you get into Southern Illinois, or
Missouri where there;s lots of hills.

Another bad thing about this area. Well, I don't know if it's bad or
not, but you're 50 miles from doing anything you like, the problem is,
you have to go 50 miles to do anything you like........

Some say it's boring, others say it's peaceful.

I say it's a little bit of both.

I am working on moving to the Raleigh area. You can live on a golf
course and be close enough to a lake that all you non-working and
honey-do time can be spent leisurely. The is in stark contrast to the DC
Metro area.

I see you arrived at work a little early this morning Kevin.

If you are not Kevin you should ignore these posts that refer to Kevin.

On the other hand you are probably too high on the weed you grow in your
basement that you can't think straight.

Anyway, have a nice day Kevin posting to the newsgroup all day long.

He convinced me that moving to someplace like Myrtle Beach for the golf and
fishing could get to be a very expensive proposition. The good fishing is a
long ways out and consumes vast quantities of gas. Slip fees are atrocious.

I'm thinking now of the Wake Forest area of NC. There's a decent sized lake
handy, so maybe I'd downgrade to something like a 17' CC with an engine big
enough to tow the grandkids.


Part of my decision process is distance from the kids and grandkids. The
Wake Forest area is about 2.5 hours from Richmond, so it's a reasonable
driving distance. Your area gets nice reviews, from what I see on the net,
but it's too far from the kids.

You must be pretty close to I-70, which I've ridden or driven several
times. Southern Illinois doesn't have a lot of terrain, but some of the
overpasses are exciting, if you like to see long distances!

I thought you'd get a kick out of that ;)

LOL!

Jim's insinuations probably bother the Flintstones as much as they bother
me!

Don't want to brag and don't want to bitch. But, I will say that there is a
lot of golf to be played in the Greensboro/Winston-Salem area of North
Carolina. I may just have to move to that neck of the woods.

Daughter's doing pretty good, considering. They had to remove part of her
thyroid, which adds another pill or two to take, but who's counting?

Her spirits are great! Thanks for asking.


I am working on moving to the Raleigh area. You can live on a golf
course and be close enough to a lake that all you non-working and
honey-do time can be spent leisurely. The is in stark contrast to the DC
Metro area.


Bert, are you thinking of the Falls Lake area? If not, what lake are you
referring to. I like the Lake Gaston area, but damn if I can find more than
one golf course up there.

Compared to where I live now, houses are cheap down there!

Sheriff Hertvick isn't here~!


Kevin, why don't you find another NG to harass. Folks are getting damn
tired of your continued crap here.


There ya go, tryin' to ruin a perfectly good vacation thread.

Sorry John but in case you did not see it was ruined with Kevin's first
post. Lay the blame on the culprits, not me. All I asked him to do
was to stop it. If that is "ruining" your vacation thread then you
have a problem my friend. ;-)


I think JohnH desperately missed his sheriff duties while away.
What luck...he returned just a day after Chuck went on his vacation. We
only had one day to 'act up' & do whatever we wanted without getting our
knuckles rapped.



Yep.

Where was he when Kevin jumped into the thread yesterday as the number one
poster *ruining* his summer vacation post? Can there be something going on
with those 2? Is romance in the air?

And what kind of summer vacation post is it when all you say is that you had
a gay old time?


Probably spent a lot of time watching ladies golf on TV.


You're participating in his crap? Damn, I'd have thought better of you.

Yes, John, I'm not far from I-70 , I-57, I-64, and even I-55 for that
matter. (55 is a ways out there , though) But yes, I'd look for
something more local to be around the kids., for you this would be a
nice place to visit, but you wouldn't want to live here......

That's one thing about here. there's a big lake with gobs of fishing,
and several golf courses, I don't know a thing about golf, but there's
several places around. Carlyle Lake is just 50 mi. from the great
Mississippi and St. Louis, where there's always something happening.

The real drawback is the land doesn't ahve much beauty to it. mostly
corn and bean fields. That is unless you get into Southern Illinois, or
Missouri where there;s lots of hills.

Another bad thing about this area. Well, I don't know if it's bad or
not, but you're 50 miles from doing anything you like, the problem is,
you have to go 50 miles to do anything you like........

Some say it's boring, others say it's peaceful.

I say it's a little bit of both.

The best part was shooting a 94 at Greensboro National. The worst part was
shooting a 117 at Winston Lakes, both golf courses. We didn't get in any
fishing, but I learned a lot from my brother who shoots from mid-70's to
mid-80's, depending on the course.

Falls Lake and B Everett Jordan Lake look to be OK fishing lakes.

Tell me about it. I could sell my house here, buy one for cash on a golf
course and still put a large chunk of money in the bank.

Don't you find it deliciously amusing that JimH, Fritz, Bert and a

they have evidence of such, but are unwilling to take the challenge? I
find it hilarious!
