Routine But Busy Days

John and I have been back here in Texas for a little over a month and enjoying the beautiful fall weather--no snow or real cold temps.  Most of our Winter Texan friends have returned--Paul and Melinda E. got in yesterday.  John has been waiting for Paul to get here so they can get back out on the golf course together.  We are still waiting for the Bevins, Miners, and Knowles to return and that should take place right after Christmas. 

With all the folks returning, the fort has become a busy place.  There are more golfers out playing and all activities have resumed.  Our schedule stays pretty much the same every week, thus the "routine" in the title.  

As I mentioned in an earlier posting, our golf cart problem has been resolved.  Chuck E. had two golf carts and was only using one of them, so we purchased his white one.  It's in mint condition with headlights, turn signals, and a cover with clear windows and zippered doors so you can keep warm and dry in foul weather.  We are planning to put our old one out on the front lawn with a "For Sale" sign and hope someone will take it off our hands.  I must say, I enjoy running around in this zippy little cart.

Thursday afternoon means couples golf, so following lunch John and I headed down to the clubhouse where fellow golfers were getting registered and paired up to play.  Today we played with George and Kathy and ended up in a tie for third place.  Due to the holidays, there will be no couples' golf for the next two weeks.  That is probably a good thing since right now our golfing leaves much to be desired.

  Heading off to play the back side of the course

As the holidays approach there seems to be plenty of events to attend.  Right now we have a progressive dinner on Friday evening and a "Greet and Meet" in unit 37 on Saturday.  Several parties are on the calendar for next week.  Should be a fun time!
