Well, if Canada is like Vegas, I guess I can do a ferry. Just don't want it getting back to my friends.

 

 

I have never done a ferry or fairy either one, so how much is a not cheap fairy or ferry? Can't be worse than going to a Turkish Bath with Barbajo.

I may not be able to sleep for a week now with that image in my head. And what is worse is that from this point on when I fill out the question "Have you ever experienced Night Terrors?" I will have to say yes, of a Turkish Bath with a barbajo.

So I'm currently kicking the tires with the idea of a day trip to Vancouver island - 45 minutes ferry and maybe a round at Victoria Golf Club

 

Have a connection there? It's a private course and extremely selective about letting non-members player even in groups with members.

I laught at your claims to fight a zombie apocalypse when most of you can't stand up to a Spider

I may or may not know someone

 

Nice!

You'll have to count me out of any Victoria legs, but the course is well worth the trip for those who want to play it.

The Conroe Open has already won the 2014 bid, I believe.

OK I emailed a few courses today to try and set a few things up. Here's a revamped schedule

 

Monday: Furry

Tuesday: Pagoda Ridge

Wednesday: Cove Links

Thursday: Not sure - some have said Cove again to lighten the load, Fraserview want's an extra $10/head for advanced booking and I don't think it's worth it, Northlands or Kings Links maybe?

Friday: Riverway

 

Tuna chime in

John I need to know your schedule

Will be with the Canadians this weekend and will nail it down! Will also try to match our outings to your choices, if possible...

Any way to move Riverway to Thursday and then slot a 2nd Cove in for Friday? The Cover on Friday would be good to have a lark and chat about how the week's gone while having an easy course to sign off on. Granted they don't have a bar to get hammered at right afterwards like Riverway if someone wants to, but I imagine there's a place nearby that could handle such duties.

 

Alternatively if people want to go at it, I'd swap Frasierview for Kingslinks. Northlands is a bit of a hike if people want to walk and KL would be closer to where people are staying I would suspect. Plus it's link'sy west coast golf and birds. Just because it annoyed me last time, doesn't mean I wouldn't have a go again. The front 10 is wicked fun

The only reason I haven't talked Kings Links until now is I figured all the Texans didn't want a flat, windy links style course that's not super lush and green.

 

Parish the thought, that would be like home. That is fine, I thought the Cove was Sunday afternoon with Barbajo and then Thursday again before he flew out.

 

A links course is totally different.

Whatever works.

 

Though I'm going to apologize right now to whomever has to play with me at Furry Creek. I will swear. A lot. And in multiple languages.
