foursome and a twosome. At 10 the foursome on the tee said they were behind a slow foursome. Came home for lunch. 42 from the whites.
Temp at tee off was 47°. 9:40 . Finished 9 at 11:00.
The course is run by city. $75.00 a year gives discounts and free rounds.
8 minutes from where I live. $32.00 for 18 with a cart. Two of my normal group had knee issues and the other had kids coming in for holidays. Had to play or lose tee time.

I'd agree, sure, why not? There are boats that were built out of old growth teak, homes in San Francisco..... RussellCattle Dec 2023 #50

No, because it's not ok to wear it anywhere. Donate it to an animal org Merlot Dec 2023 #23

Please help me understand why you suggest donating, specifically, to an "animal org"? EarnestPutz Dec 2023 #54

It's for comfort purposes for animals in rehab. Disaffected Dec 2023 #62

Thanks for the clarification. I guess my imagination wasn't up to the task. Nice idea. EarnestPutz Dec 2023 #96

My great aunt had a mink stole with heads and little feet. It creeped me out. Ocelot II Dec 2023 #27

I sure understand! My grandmother's had little fox heads which attached by their mouths in front Rhiannon12866 Dec 2023 #28

It's repulsive MorbidButterflyTat Dec 2023 #51

I even saw an old Bewitched episode where Samantha and a woman she wanted to impress wanted mink coats! Rhiannon12866 Dec 2023 #53

I sometimes watch old TV shows late at night and I cringe whenever I see women begging for mink coats Rhiannon12866 Dec 2023 #111

Agree. MorbidButterflyTat Dec 2023 #115

Excellent point, and those shows are all still shown in syndication today, but they couldn't get away with those today Rhiannon12866 Dec 2023 #116

my mom had something with a little head on one end and feet on the other, that wrapped around the neck BlueWaveNeverEnd Dec 2023 #35

Yeah, my gramma had one like that. The mouth opened as a spring clip to bite down on the other end and hold it in place NBachers Dec 2023 #61

It's the bride and groom's day. Why wear something that might cause a ruckus? Irish_Dem Dec 2023 #81

No. It is white with a warm turnup collar. cachukis Dec 2023 #95

Sure. If it's just a finished collar without a tail, legs, head and a mouth that clamps it in place * Oopsie Daisy Dec 2023 #97
