Next Winter - let's plan a Snowbird tourney

[Slingblade61]

Sling are you a fighter pilot?? What aircraft??

LMAO!

No, I fly only on the internet.

I've been in the RAF_662 for 5 years now. They play with figter GAMES, although a couple of them are /were real fighter pilots.

Parents are just people who are doing a job that there is no training for. We learn to do it as we go. We'll make mistakes, do things wrong, and handle stuff the wrong way. But (for the majority of parents, I hope) these mistakes are made because we love our kids and are trying to do what's best for them. Besides, we have to spend all of our golf cash on you little rug rats and give some fat dude in a red suit and a sleigh all the credit. We deserve some mulligans for at least that.

Amen to that Dr. Crowe.

I'll drive if I have to. Living in a land of such vast area, a long drive is not big deal. Hauling 18 straight hours from BC is pretty normal for people around these parts. I'm pretty sure my grandparents drive to Yuma, AZ. every fall in about two days.

I can pick anyone up that's on the way. Brandon would sorta work, i guess. Sucks to drive 4.5 hours and not get any closer to our destination!

What about accomodations. Can I tent in someone's backyard? I'm totaly cool with that and it would save me a boat load. I'll pay the 12 bucks a night, plus the 3 dollar fire tax.

I'm sure Silver will bring his queen size bed with the gf on it. So don't worry about sleeping in a tent Rock.
I'll take my chances with the tent though.

What happened to the Cayenne. If your not staying in it, then I am.

Oh, I'll drive the Cayenne, don't get me wrong. It just smells like wet leather for days after I sleep in it tho.

Anyone wanna share a tent?

I hope you other Canucks don't mind a cross border trip in a Porsche. We'll see if the wife will let me take it or not.

Just to get an idea, how many females will there be on this trip?

Unless we were going to the Virgin Islands or the Florida Keys, my wife wouldn't get withen fifty miles of a golf course. I will be attending solo.

[Rockford35]

Ladies?

Well, let's see, Sling, Bravo, Loop.....I count 3 so far.

Although I live in sunny Oh-High-Oh, travel golf in the winter time still sounds like fun. I drive down to see my daughter in Nashville 5 or 6 times a year, and Birmingham (or Chattanooga) are "just down the road." If Rockford gets tired of driving, he could fly into Toledo or Columbus and I could pick him up there.

[Rockford35]

Toledo, hey?

I've never been to Ohio.

I wonder if I could drive down to....meh, that reeks of effort. I'd just pay the extra 60 bucks and fly.

Thing is, once I get down there, I have no transportation.

And someone is gonna get tired of driving me to the range....

R35

[bdcrowe]

I heard tents earlier. A tent on the range sounds like a plan.

Actually, I'll be there and would be glad to cart you around.

If we can actually pull this off, I'll bet the least of our worries will be getting around.

Two or three of us can chip in for a rental it will cost very little. I call shotgun.

[Bravo]

You know Rock there is a good connection from Regina to Minneapolis and into Birmingham on Northwest. Total travel time is only about five hours.

Too bad the fare was $1,686.00 USD

Heck - we are flying to Scotland for an average fare of $950....
