I would be happy to play golf with you when you are here. My handicap is 17. Send me a privagte messaqge and I'll give you my contact information.

BTW - for your preview they will make the arrangments for you, pretty much on a course of your choosing. They reserve set times for preview people. You'll probably be playing with someone else also on the tour. They will not arrange any additional tee times for you. However, I can do so as a guest.
So, after 18 months, how do you like life in TV? Is it everything you thought it would be? What has been your reality check and what has been a pleasant surprise?

I love that TV keeps sending new and improved videos. Keeps the dream fresh in our minds. With high-stress jobs, sometimes knowing there are fun-filled, carefree days ahead keeps us sane (well, somewhat sane). Having lived in one State all my life, moving 1600 miles away will be a big deal, I'm sure.

Thanks, Clekr, for the offer for a golf game! Most of my golf partners at my local club are 14 to 17 handicaps...I'm the comic relief, but sometimes I beat them straight up (on a good day for me and a bad day for them), but I have to buy the adult beverages afterwards, so all I end up with are bragging rights until the next round. Maybe we can get a TOTV foursome together? We've got Golfnut, you and me, all we need is one more...

I'll contact my sales rep and inquire about how the tee times work. Maybe you can make a tee time and I can use my vouchers at that time. It would be nice to use the vouchers, but paying out of pocket is not prohibitive either.
