On the day before our Lifestyle tour was to end last year, my wife and I were in a cart travelling south on the MMP looking for Evans Prairie; the MMP took us under BV onto Turtle Mound EC and we thought we weren't supposed to be there so we stopped at hole #2 to look at the map. A man stopped beside us to ask if we were lost. He had us follow him to Evans Prairie and we barely had time to tell him "thank you" before he took off back north.

The next day, his picture was on the front of the newspaper. It was College Colors day, or close to it, and he was featured because him and his brother played for North Carolina (he was the QB, his brother a receiver) and they were the only siblings ever to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated at the same time.

His act of kindness and our talking to an Ambassador on EP Killdeer #7 that same day made our mind up to retire here (that Ambassador continues to be a good friend of ours).
