Prestwick

In the mornings when we get up it is still quite dark as the sunrise doesn't begin until around. 7:00. Boy 5:30 sure comes quickly.  We were excited to try out a new course this morning. Today we played Prestwick. We were warmly greeted and could load up our carts right away. Bonus, things were looking good.  The guys went to the driving range while the ladies tried the putting greens.  Again we came across a putting green with no holes. The greens were running fast and the pin placements were not easy.  The course was very challenging and even though I did not hit well I really enjoyed the course.  We were told at the beginning there were no Alligators on this course but we did see turtles and swans.






After golf we ventured to Murrells Inlet and enjoyed a walk along the boardwalk. Grace captured some great shots of the birds around there. We then went to the fish store Harrelsons and picked up some Mahi and crab for dinner.









We had to be back at the Condo by 5:30 as tonight was the golf evening. Things have changed a little as we used to be able to get a glass of wine with our drink tickets and now it was beer only. Also they used to have a few golf courses sponsor ptizes and this time there was only one course which was Wachesaw Plantation.  Tickets were drawn and Grace won the first prize which was a towel.  Ralph also won a prize of a 3 pack of golf balls and a poker chip that caqn be used as a ball marker.  It was exciting to have two people from our group win.

Dinner was amazing.  The Mahi tasted great and we enjoyed beans, rice with peas in it and salad to go with it.   Can certainly takes some lessons from Ralph as he cooks a mean meal.



We had our competition again and it was a tie between Teresa and Ralph for total score of putts on Par 3's.  Ralph won the tie breaker.
