The course is called Alston Moor golf Links, on Wolfe Island (Yeah I know I already said it. It's a 9 hole course and to play 18 holes it's only $22.00. Mondays are 2 for 1, so $22.00 covered mom and I for the 18. Carts are pretty cheap too, according to mom. We had 2 carts for 18 holes for about $2.00 more than a single cart at a "higher end" course. Par for 18 holes is 70. Mom shot a 110. Me? I shoe 121, 51 over par. Not bad really, when you consider this was like my 3rd or 4th game in 10 years, including my first ever game!
The cool thing about the course is that Wolfe Island is home to a fairly big wind farm. I knew they were building wind generators over there but I didn't realize how many, close to 100. One of which is right on the course too. DAMN! They're big!

We had a ton of fun. Mom was trying to get on the green for the 1st hole from the 6th hole tee off. LOL I lost a few balls in the bushes and lost my hat for a bit. Carrie spent a lot of time laughing at both of us.
Now our friend Larry is wanting to come out in August to golf with us. It should be very interesting....
