Thin2win Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Hey Spies. You are all invited to join myself, @Kenny Band @fixyurdivot this June 23rd - 26th as we continue our annual golf trip. This year we will be letting Kenny host, and will be traveling to the TriCities of Washington. The final itinerary is in progress, but we will be taking on Kenny's home course of Columbia Point for sure. Also in the mix are Wine Valley, Apple Tree, Wild Horse, as well as few others we are looking at.

MmmmmmBuddy Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I would love to make it this year. As of today, there is only one conflict on my calendar for the 23rd. Could potentially be rearranged. It just might happen... Apple Tree is the site of my only HIO.. It's been a minute since I played in "The Palm Springs of Washington".

I always enjoy seeing that sign when I drive by on my way to/from Seattle. Two years ago when we were in Palm Springs, we were driving around (probably lost) looking for a course when we saw a sign that read: "Welcome to Palm Springs The Yakima of California." Wished we had taken a picture of it, because when we were there in January this year, we couldn't find it. gavinski91, sirchunksalot, cksurfdude and 5 others 4 4 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope to see you all there, maybe a few of those pesky Portland area Spies will come out for a few days. I've never played Apple Tree, but it looks great. Wine Valley also looks beautiful. As an aside, this is a Ladies friendly group too. Kenny's wife as well as mine will also be in attendance, the more the merrier. tony@CIC, MmmmmmBuddy, GolfSpy TCB and 3 others 6 Quote WITB: Driver: SIM2 Max 12° - Accra TZ6 M4 FW Wood: Gen5 0311 7w Fujikura Motore X F3 Irons: ZX7 PW-7i, ZX5 6i-5i Wedges: Zipcore 50°, 58° Putter: MySpider X Cart: Onewheel XR+ Ball: Z-Star Diamond/ Z-Star XV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fixyurdivot Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Unlike @Yellow Ball, I actually travel a pretty healthy distance to attend these great meet-up's. Kenny and Martha are going to have to pull the proverbial "rabbit out of the hat" to top the beer and chow we had at O'Doherty's Irish Pub from last years meet-up. I'm sure hoping more of you can find time to make this years event.
