QUALITY TIME TENTS AND MORE

STOP BY MY CAMPING STORE::::::http://astore.amazon.com/qualtime-20

I DO OWN FIVE TENTS, ONE OF WHICH I LIVED IN FOR AWHILE. I ALWAYS MENTION "IT WAS A NICE TENT" . THE TENT SHOWN ABOVE IS OVER 20 YEARS OLD AND IS A EUREKA "SPACE SAVER" I THINK . TWENTY YEARS IS A LONG TIME FOR MY MEMORY. I HAVE FOUND THAT WHEN YOU ARE INSIDE A TENT, IN YOUR MIND YOU CAN BE ANYWHERE. ALL YOU CAN VISUALLY SEE ARE THE TENT WALLS. A COUPLE OF WINTERS AGO I PUT THE TENT UP IN MY GARAGE. I THEN PUT A SMALL ELECTRIC HEATER IN THE TENT AND PLAYED A CD OF "NATURE SOUNDS" CANADIAN LOONS IN PARTICULAR. THEN, MY NEIGHBOR LARRY WALKED IN AND HE KNEW I WAS "NUTS" FOR SURE. THE PICTURE ABOVE WAS TAKEN AT A CAMPGROUND NEAR SHREVE OHIO IN AMISH COUNTRY. WE WERE THERE MONDAY THRU FRIDAY. I DON'T LIKE CAMPGROUNDS ON WEEKENDS. THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE.

WELL, I KNOW IT IS WAY TO COLD IN OHIO AND THERE IS A REALLY NICE CAMPGROUND ON JEKYLL ISLAND IN GEORGIA http://www.jekyllisland.com/location/map.asp?mapID=2 ALWAYS NICE TO DREAM..

KINGS NORTH MYRTLE BEACH

It's a 568-yard par 5 that wraps around a lake to the left, with an island fairway straight ahead. If everything works out ok I will be playing this hole on Tuesday 2/17/09. I'm going to go for the island fairway,but I will save my mulligan just for this hole in case I have to use it . Joe Todd

P.S. I will let you know how I did when I get back..
