with all of that. I play Tierra almost every Sunday. I like the straight tee times with no wave.

OB sure was a struggle last year. To be honest a few of our CCs struggled last year. I am hopeful it was because of the terrible winter.

Who knows, this is our 4th winter upcoming and memory says winters went like this:

2007 - 2008: Pretty nice, December was really warm.
2008 - 2009: Folks that lived here for years said it was one of the worst winters they could remember in central FL.
2009 - 2010: Are you kidding me?

2010 - 2011: I think we are due
