We got nothing for Friday. On Tuesday when I saw we had nothing I quickly put in a request for Saturday. The week before I got a reservation for Saturday when I had to do that. This time, nothing for Saturday either and unlike the week before, teetimes are up to 5pm and beyond.

Finally I went on the open times and grabbed 10:56 at Glenview, I think one reason that was available is I believe prices go down at 11:00, without the waves I can't tell, so we will have to pay $42 instead $36. The only option was Lopez at 1:52, but that meant not finishing until about 6pm and our member who lives in LaBelle probably wouldn't get home until after 7pm.
The tee time system is not first come, first served.
