Default Take a walk around your neighborhood

Everyday we took a walk around the neighborhood and said hello to anyone outside. If they seemed like an extroverted people we chatted for a while. Couple of times we were invited over for drinks, so we reciprocated in kind also. That's how we made our first friends. Today, I received a personal message on TOTV from a couple we made friends at the mail box. I commented on how great his golf cart was. He showed me all the bell and whistles on his cart and later we visited their house. This was during the first week of being there. One thing we did and should't do was to walk one hole of the golf course and chat with people after they had hit their balls. They were friendly but immediately thereafter, we saw marshal's cart come our way. He was nice but told us we can't do this. As a golfer, I knew that but just wanted to test how far we could go to make friends.
