I don't go this way much but this is a dangerous "intersection". Just wanted to warn people to be careful here.
Also today as we were returning from golf on Morse on the opposite side of the road there was a golf cart being driven by a minor who looked 10 years old. She definately was not 14. In the cart were her grandparents. Another example of grandparents who have no sense.

Send them up to Rio Grande in a couple of months to see me!
I'm not making lite of this folks. It drives me crazy too, but we still
L-O-V-E TV and don't want to be any other place (this side of heaven). I'm afraid it will only get worse as the population blooms to 105,000. That means defensive driving is the order of the day in both a car and golf cart.
John, I never understand why they plant shrubs so close to the corners, etc. and not keep them trimmed short so you can see over them. Having to pull halfway out to see oncoming traffic is down right scary. That happens, by the way, in every city. Glad you weren't involved in an accident.
