It was just another round of golf

The Fazio Course at Turtle Bay on the North Shore of Oahu is "one of the nicer courses" I have played.  That rolls of the tongue nicely doesn't it?  Try nicest! The sound from the ocean can be a bit distracting, but once you get past that - and the tropical birds, - well, it was a nice outing.

Really, the second green and third tee are right there  — the breeze off the ocean held up my approach shot a bit — yeah that and a poor swing.

The mountains in the distance were a nice back drop too.  This course is in the valley that the Japanese used to fly into Pearl Harbor on their attack in 1941.  (little history and geography lesson from Justin)

 The wind really did play a part of the day, note, the flag that Justin is moving from the pin.

and here is Mark, coming back toward the green- he eventually found it.  Actually it was yours truly who heard most frequently "you are away"  or the dreaded "you are still away"

 this is where we were.  As the sign says - the Fabled North Shore.  -and I can see why.
