More golf course

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

The course sign behind the 9th green and in front of the club house which in years past had been the general’s house. As you can see the course is on the water.

Another pelican on the 7th hole of the course. A gator used to hang out on that island but he is not here this year.

Sense of humor abounds

Monday, January 14th, 2008

There is never a lost opportunity for a practical joke or an expression of a sense of humor.  We woke up one morning to find the following monster golf set sitting with our real golf clubs outside our trailer. We correctly guessed the source and found out she got them at a flea market for $1. Instead of giving them back it was decided to pass them on. They next went to our usual golf partners who were in overflow. They were received with the same enthusiasm as we showed and then they also passed them on. Besides the big clubs, there was a big ball and big tee and instructions on how to play monster golf

Last of the Beach for now

Do not know what this is or was. It was hard rubber, a cylinder, hollow, heavy and big with barnacles on the inside and outside.

The Beach

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

Boardwalk The Tyndall NCO Beach is miles and miles of great big wide beach with nothing on it except sand, shells and other stuff that washes up. It is called the NCO beach because the entrance to it is a half mile boardwalk that starts near what was once the NCO club. Above is the boardwalk.

Above is the beach looking East to South East. We walked about an hour in this direction and then back.

Now: See the green indicator on the regulator. That says that the tank has propane in it. When the indicator is red then the tank is empty.
