    OT: RIP Brooks Robinson

    That is a past life, 20 years ago. Caves is a special place no doubt about it. I was fortunate to work at some amazing facilities. Only problem with Caves is I had to work with 3 guys that went thru the Penn State PGM program.

    OT: Do dealers inflate the documentation and destination fees?

As far as the destination that fee is set by the manufacturer and is in your...

    A simple rule I live by. If it appreciates "buy it" If it depreciates "rent or lease it" A good residual on a car is say 60%+/- a few points. At 60% that means I am only paying for 35% of a car after a modest discount of 5% (plus tax and fees). I can do two 3yr lease always be under warranty...

Once you get to number 7 par 3 IMHO the course has more character and better more playable holes. The Lower is just plain long not as much piece and quiet you have shunpike rd and mountain ave...

    OT - Jersey Country Clubs

    My cousin Chris Dzergoski is the head pro at Bella Vista they have a nice club house but it is a short course par 68 I think. I have not played it in many years but it was fun. The ownership has put a lot of money into the facility over the last 15 years.
