NOT really looking forward to it. Tee time is nine thirtyish.

Thanks for thinkin' of me, aj.
Make sure you check with the others in your golf group. Most likely they won't want to play either.

However, if you do venture out to the cold course, keep in mind that not only does a Tervis tumbler keep your beverages cold in the summer, it keeps them hot in the winter. Beverages such as coffee and Baileys, hot chocolate and peppermind schnapps, or whatever your favorite warm beverage may be!

Another way to know if it may be a bit cold is when you do not get charged three points to cancel. If the tee time office says it is a one point cancel day, it may be a bit chilly.
GG, It would have a been a much better post on my part if I actually spelled soul correctly. In hindsight a better opening would have been:

I know you are a kind soul from reading your posts, but now I know you are a hearty soul......

Have fun, tonight is our first night with heat on I suspect.....

I am 200 miles south of the Villages and its going to be about 8 degrees warmer here in the Fort Myers area vs the Villages. Normally, Tuesday is a golf day for me. But not tomorrow! Too cold! Wait a day or two and it will warm up. I think I will go swimming instead.

There are 366 days this year. There is no reason to freeze you butt off on the golf courses during the few freezing days we have. Take a break and find something to do at home or in one of the rec centers. Clean out the garage or play pool.

Now we all know that tomorrow will be too cold for Ladies Golf except for the 1015 AM slot at Heron. It was pretty cold this morning, but the wind was what made it bad. Supposed to be colder tomorrow.

I have sent my regrets. This golfer has chickened out for tomorrow.

Gracie - No regrets. The powers that be have cancelled for you.

Now you've probably opened a can of worms. Lord knows what people will come up with.

A very fine line between wimp and wise .

This AM would be too cold for me also. If the wind stays down and no clouds, I suspect the afternoon wave will be pretty nice even though the temp will be low.....

Seems most courses closed for a bit this AM anyway:

From your house, I believe you could fly a paper airplane over to his place with a note . . .
