I live in Tamarind Grove. That is on St. Charles, below Pennecamp, Buttonwood and just above St. James. The golf courses south of 466 (Palmer, Mallory, Cane, Havana and Bonifay) I can reach them all in about 10 min to 20 min max. LSL is about 18 minutes. Going up Morse to Spanish Springs is about 30 minutes. Going up Buena Vista I normally don't go beyond Palmer, except for Golf Fest at the Polo Fields I gave it a try and it was about 30 minutes.

So normally if I'm going to any of these golf courses or LSL I use the cart, for anything else like Walmart and the other places on 466 or 27/441 I use the air conditioned car with the radio, I get bored driving in a cart more than 25 minutes. When I go to the VA Clinic at Mulberry it takes me 30 minutes in my car, I wouldn't even attempt that in my cart, it's 11 miles one way.
