Building two more high rises?  Better take care not to put them on the east to south side of any golf greens.  When we redid the first green there many years ago, the shade from a nearby high rise caused them all sorts of turf problems.


But, probably a deal that makes sense overall.

Shaffer, you are sui generis. Bad news on any day of the year, but this is a Christmas classic. I'd love to host you and a pal in Chicago this summer. Just before Ravisloe is turned into a Menard's!  Get up here before we're all gone!

He's the Ben Cartwright of gca: with three sons from three different wives, all of whom passed away in childbirth, old Ben was clearly the kiss of death! If Steve puts a course in a thread title, can NLE status be far behind?
