Let's not worry too much about something not even remotely on the radar. There are enough real topics worthy of our collective wisdom where our positive energy can be focused.

All IMHO, of course.
Village07, Always the voice of reason and good cause for summary.

but I must add....

In some golf course communities, the only carts allowed on the course are the ones owned by the course. Our friends live in such a posh community in Sarasota and the cart fees are twenty five dollars a round.

You must also pay LARGE initiation fees each time you buy there (they have had two homes) and the monthly fee of approximately six hundred dollars, not including the club house meals fee that must be paid whether you use it up or not. Very typical of a upscale private country club.

We have almost all of that at a very reasonable price. We are so lucky.

Consider this a hijack. Topicop will be here soon.
