All Popped, and All You Can Play ... for $17!

It's official, with this extraordinary weather (+27C on the deck) everything's at least three weeks early:

I went back to the Green Acres Golf Centre just 1/2 an hour away.

It's a super par 3 executive course with 2 sets of tees which makes the second time around completely different.  Use the white tees 'out' and red ones 'in' and everyone plays off the same one.  If you start before 3 pm you can go around again and again. I was happy, however, to have my driver as 4 of the holes are over 200 yards.  

There are some pretty tricky bits, too.  There is a good sized river running through the back which influences 7 holes, and there are also trees ... several trees ... right in your face type trees.  This hole is only 40/50 yards.  Take a good look at the trees (thankfully without leaves).  They are much, much closer than they appear here. Yep, a 'bump & run' right off the tee solved this one:

This hole has not only the river but the sign post for the hole marker front and centre.  Oh, and a tree ....!

There's a marker sign here as well, but a little farther out. And BTW, that willow in the distance just picks up its skirts and moves over after you tee off:

The only records broken today were the high temperatures.  A great day out none the less.
