Now Golf at Fort Myers for only$15. UNREAL.They are officially closing on Sunday to re-do the course. It's a Douglas Ross designed course built in 1931. A nice piece of history.
I'll be golfing Copperhead on Tue for $18 with a cart and free range balls. It's going to be hard to get used to Canadian prices again.
A fellow Canadian neighbour,and workout partner,Nick, has in laws at Kelly Green. Swanky! You can't buy a place in there(a small condo)for under $400,000 and single family homes are over a million.
Get this. A golf membership and monthly HOA/fees(our condo fees) are $2,000 for golf and $1,000 for the HOA..A total of $3,000.
Anyway we got to enjoy the range yesterday(Fri 18th April). Nice. We are golfing with Nick's father in law on Thurs. If he doesn't want to go to Eastwood, Nick says we can go to Kelly Green on his ticket. It's really beautiful. First class.
Most of our furniture is now spoken for. We only have our bedroom and a few items in the living room to sell. That's a big load off our minds(and our pocket books).
I have rented a U Haul trailer for our trip back home and depending on the drop off, it will be $479 in Dunnville, or $239 to return it to Buffalo. Guess what? My MC is being delivered to Brockport(just outside Buffalo) so we can kill two birds with one stone and save $240. Sweet!!!
There are a few things I have noticed during our sojourn here in Florida that are startling. One is the number of amputees. Thank goodness we are not imperialistic. The second are the number and seniors still working. Apparently to pay for health care or simply existing because there are virtually no pension plans available to the general public. We see 70 somethings still bagging at Publix on a regular basis. Thirdly, and I know I'm being redundant,the number of bad drivers. Really bad and aggressive drivers.
